Sing You Home by Jodi Picoult

About the book:
After 10 years of trying to get pregnant, Zoe Baxter's dream finally seems to come true. Yet at seven months, horrific turn of events leads to something that takes away the baby and breaks apart her marriage for good.

In the aftermath of the tragedy, Zoe immerses herself into a career as a music therapist where she uses music as healing tools for various different victims of sickness or tragedy. When she meets Vanessa, a guidance counsellor who requests her help with a suicidal teen, their relationship blossoms from business to friendship and surprisingly enough, love.

The novel explores gay rights and the challenges that same-sex couples face when it comes to both marriage and adoption. We predict that she'll have another best-seller on her hands with this one, but will no doubt face a lot of backlash.
