critical reviews
"[B]e prepared for a harrowing but riveting read. Jodi Picoult couldn't have chosen a timelier topic, as PERFECT MATCH details a case of child molestation in which a Catholic priest is the principal suspect." - (USA Today, 5/2/02)
"PERFECT MATCH is Jodi Picoult's ninth novel. Like her others, it will have you turning its pages fast, then faster, and then faster still.
