Keeping Faith by Jodi Picoult

Faith is a 7-year-old girl who develops an imaginary friend while her parents are going through a divorce. She becomes a custody battle when she claims her friend is God and female and throngs of believers start camping outside the door. When she develops stigmata, heals her grandmother and an aids baby, her father jumps into action suing for custody from her mother.

Frankly, I did not enjoy this novel anywhere close to the previous Picoult novels I’ve read. It was just too unrealistic and, unlike her other novels, not very thought provoking. The ending: a disappointment, but a relief.
