Jodi Picoult has a talent for making her readers consider, and reconsider, issues they’ve never thought much of before. At the center of this, perhaps her most famous novel, is medical emancipation: a thirteen-year-old girl wants to have control of her own body; she doesn’t want to leave decisions u...
Quick review for a quick read. I first read "My Sister's Keeper" many years ago, but I wanted to do a re-reading of it before I wrote a review. I think my opinion on the book is about the same as it was several years back. It's one of those books that can either work for you or completely throw you ...
The story will make your heartbroken. I know there a movie called the same thing but the ending has changed from the books ending. If you watched the movie before reading this book your are going to get surprise ending either way but especially by the book ending. Anna doe go to court hearing to ge...
I was really impressed with the writing in this novel for 97% of the way through it, even able to forgive it its little conceits here and there: the fact that Campbell would be so blind to Julia's pain and Julia, brilliant Harvard law full scholarship girl, was unable to realize that a service dog f...
This book is somewhat difficult to rate. I picked it up because I needed something light & easy, a little break from the historical fiction that I usually read. A quick read, yes, but not quite as fluffy as I thought it would be. Anna is the main character in this novel, though each chapter is told ...

A girl who may not know what she wants right now, and she may not know who she is right now, but who deserves the chance to find out.” - My Sister's Keeper My Sister's Keeper is the story of the Fitzgerald family, Brian and Sarah and their...
Paradoxically, this was both an easy and difficult read. Easy, because it's a page-turner. The 400 odd pages read quickly, were well-paced, completely engrossing, featured good dialogue and has a strong narrative flow as it switched through different first person points of view with each chapter. To...
Oh how I hate this book! I finished it quite a while ago and am still pissed at myself for wasting time on this steaming pile of a book. I read it because so many of my friends were raving about how wonderful it is and how great Jodi Picoult books are. This book was so terrible I asked all the pe...
Such a beautiful story. Much much much better than the movie. The ending really left me crying..*SPOILER ALERT*I feel like comparing the book with the movie-adaptation. Why was it that in the book, Anna was the one who died, but then in the movie, Kate died and Anna lived? I think it would be much m...
