My Sister's Keeper Book Recommendation

I have recently finished My Sister's Keeper and I would highly recommend it to a friend. This book is a tragic novel so if you don't mind crying - definitely check this book out! I rate it five out of five stars!

My Sister's Keeper starts out with a young girl with a very big problem. Anna wants to be medically emancipated from her parents. This means that she wants to have the responsibility to make the decision to help her sister stay healthy, or not - all by herself. Throughout the entire book, Anna and her family struggle with the question of, "What is fair?" Her mom has completely focused on keeping Kate, Anna's sister, alive. But, is it fair to Anna to have to sacrifice her life outside of the hospital, for her sister?

The author does a great job keeping the reader interested. There are many characters including Campbell and Julia. They are two lawyers with a past who have to work together on Anna's case. So, not only does the author tell a story through Anna, she tells a parallel story through Campbell and Julia.

She flashbacks to the past as well, in order to thoroughly develop the plot.

Jodi Picoult also keeps the reader from getting bored by having lots of plot twists. In fact, there are several huge revelations in the resolution of the book and you'll have to read it to find out!
