House Rules by Jodi Picoult

Excellent book.  I enjoyed this book about a boy with Autism (Aspberger's) immensely.  It was very interesting delving inside the mind of a person with Aspberger's Syndrom and having the opportunity to observe the thought-process and coping mechanisms of 18-year-old Jacob.  The affect Jacob's Aspberger's has on his brother Theo and mother Emma are also explored in detail.

Jacob is on trial for murder throughout most of the book and the toll this takes on his family is portrayed.  This book is a 10/10.
