Synopsis

When Willow is born with severe osteogenesis imperfecta, her parents are devastated—she will suffer hundreds of broken bones as she grows, a lifetime of pain. In this provocative story from the #1 New York Times bestselling author, “Picoult writes with unassuming brilliance” (Stephen King). Every expectant parent insists the same thing: they simply want a healthy baby. Charlotte and Sean O’Keefe wanted the same but instead, their lives are made up of sleepless nights, mounting bills, pity from other parents, and haunting what-ifs. Yet, in other ways, their daughter Willow is a perfect child. Smart as a whip, beautiful, brave, and kind, Willow is Willow, in sickness and in health.

📚 Why We Recommend It

The hook: A wrongful-birth lawsuit detonates a family and a lifelong friendship, pursued not out of cruelty—but out of love that’s running out of money.
Reality that stings: The novel’s unflinching portrait of osteogenesis imperfecta (brittle-bone disease) is deeply researched and emotionally devastating.
Page-turner craft: Alternating narrators, courtroom fireworks, and a signature endgame twist make this a “read-way-past-bedtime” story.
Proven favorite: A #1 New York Times bestseller—perfect for book clubs that love moral gray zones and “What would you do?” debates.
