Harvesting the Heart is a novel in which a young mother searches for her place in a world that seems to trap her. Paige is just 18 when she runs away from home in search of a new life, to get away from her shameful past. Her own mother left her when she was young and she needs to start a new life. She moves to a city and meets Nicholas who is a cardiac surgeon built on prestige and everything she is not. They fall in love and soon marry and have a child. However Paige is overwhelmed feeling she never had a mom to show her, and she will never fit in with Nicholas’s lifestyle. She does exactly what her mom has taught her and runs, leaving Nicholas and her child behind. Through the search of her mother she finds herself and decides if she should ever return to her family.
Picoult writes simply including imagery and emotion in her novel. Every page entices you not to not put it down, it is a sad and dramatic read. Easy and realistic, and mother or child can relate to the family issues in this novel. I recommend this book to anyone that likes love stories packed with emotion

I love Jody Picoult novels and how they are page turners. Every Picoult novel has a twist and is an interesting read. I enjoy books packed with emotions and mother daughter stories
This book seems good for girls. I don't think I would be able to read it, because I would get too emotional
I was always interested in reading a Jody Picoult book. Everyone I talk to really enjoys them. This book seems to have an interesting story and I'm really curious to see how the story end.
