My Sister's Keeper



Reviewed by Mehr E.

Jodi Picoult's My Sister's Keeper is a flawless, stunning, tear jerking book about a family struggling with their daughter's leukemia, which comes in the way of everything the family is going through. Anna sues her parent's for Medical Emancipation and not having the right to choose if she want's or doesn't want to donate her organs to Kate.

Brian is never at home , because he can't handle the stress-he is always working. Sara is blinded by Kate's illness she doesn't see or do anything other than what concerns Kate, and the fight to keep her alive. Jesse is away from his family. "Can a parent love too much?Or is too much never enough?"

Family, friends, death, and the most important one is sisterhood, the root of the book. From the acknowledgments to the epilogue I couldn't put the book down. every page from the 423 builds up to tears. Picoult's book, is a beautiful heart throbbing novel which I would recommend to everyone from the ages 13 and older. It will leave readers wanting more when they are done.
