This was the first of Jodi Picoult books that i read and after that i was totally hooked with her writing. I love the way she writes, giving different perspectives. Its just amazing. I loved this book specially because of the situation presented to the characters of this remarkable story. I also loved the relationship between the two sisters. And the ending...it was so unexpected..i was so devastated. Even after that i kept on coming back for more of Jodi Picoult's writing.

Absolutely fantastic!

I really enjoyed the movie as well, however, I hated that the ending was changed.

Just a heads up: The movie is does awful justice to the book! If you're thinking of seeing the movie first, I really recommend reading the book. Great story, Love the ending.

I just finished this book. And i gotta say its a good one took me a little longer then normal but now i wish i hadnt finished it.
A sad story about a girl who was born to supply her leukemic sister with blood, marrow, and basically life. When she goes to get a lawyer to sue for her own body, a heartbreaking twist makes this book one of my faves.
Book is better than the movie
