My Sister's Keeper


Yay! It's Friday! This week really went by slow for me. I hope you all are having a good day so far. So, right now I am reading a really cool book. It's called My Sister's Keeper and is by one of my favorite authors by Jodi Picoult. I've read this book before, but I really wanted to read it again. The books is absolutely wonderful. Here's the back of the book if you want to read it:

Can a parent love too much? Or is too much never enough?


Anna is not sick, but she might as well be. By age thirteen, she has undergone countless surgeries, transfusions, and shots so that her older sister, Kate can somehow fight the leukemia that has plagued her since childhood. The product of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, Anna was conceived as a bone marrow match for Kate-a life and a role that she has never challenged . . .until now. Like most teenagers, she has always been defined in terms of her sister-and so Anna makes a decision that for most would be unthinkable, a decision that will tear her family apart and have perhaps fatal consequences for the sister she loves. A provocative novel that raises some important ethical issues, My Sister's Keeper is the story of one family's struggle for survival at all human costs and a stunning moral parable for all time.


I really love this book and I highly encourage you to read it if you don't have a book to read right now. It's very interesting and you will never guess how it ends. :] Hope you all have a great Friday and a good weekend. :]
