Why read it?

1 author picked Second Glance as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This Picoult novel, written close to the time I began to shape my book, asks whether we can love across time. While the theme is much more grounded in practical and natural circumstances, the fact that the question is teased out in this novel helps shape the same question my character, Adelyn, finds herself embroiled in. Is Innis capable of breaking the barrier using the strength of a first love?

From Renee's list on women with pasts and futures.
