If there is one thing to commend Jodi Picoult on, it's this: she has a talent for finding new, original, and provocative subjects on which to base books. The premise here is that a 13-year-old girl, whose transplants keep her older sister alive, is suing for the right to her body to avoid being forc...
With advances in medical technology come new questions of medical ethics. The question of creating "designer" children is rife with controversy, but what if you design a child to save a child you already have?::: Creating the Perfect Match :::The premise of Jodi Picoult's My Sister's Keeper is based...
Oh, the tears! I cried so much during this book that I myself couldn't believe it! Such a touching story, such well-built characters and so well-written! Don't miss it!

I thought this was a great read. It isn't my usual fare, but it was our bookclub selection. I really liked how the author went back and forth with the viewpoints of everyone involved except Kate. Out of everyone involved, why is it that we never hear what SHE wants? Of course, that would spoil the e...
The writing was gripping and it was quite interesting, but I'm tempted to knock it down a couple stars based on the ending alone. A very disappointing shock ending.
