I LOVED IT!
This was the best book I have ever read! Such a great story line and wonderful twist at the end. I would recommend it, as it was a pleasure to read.

This was unbelivable.
The story of My Sister's Keeper was absolutely amazing. Jodi kept me into it right from the start. I was so indulged with this story. Coming from Rhode Island Ii knew all the locations the author spoke about. As many of you I'm sure did, I bawled my eyes out at the end. It was a story of heartbreak, and glimmers of happiness. Having a sister I related a lot to my relationship with my dear sister and I thought of how I'd feel if Iwas in this situation. Amazing read, please read right away. :)!

AWSOME
This book was the best book I have ever read. It has a great plot which many people, including me, can relate to and the book has a surprising ending.
Definitely put into the MUST READ group.

Sibs are People, too
One of Picoult's best. She set aside her tendency to hurry through a book, failing to complete characters as though she has a word quota and doesn't want to use too many in one place, and did a much more thorough job with this one. You hate and love almost everyone before it's over. The younger sister is portrayed as a bit too sophiscated and understanding for an adolescent that has been through what she has, and pity the poor child whose mother is as single-minded as this one, but, overall, a very good effort about a topic that won't go away soon.

My Sister's Keeper
This book is the best book I have ever read. It has inspired me to become a writer. this has the best ending I have ever read. It just keeps you woundering ever single page. You cannot put this book down whatever you do. I have never finished a book but this page turner I did and found out why people read so much. Thank you Jodi Picoult for bringing me into this exciting world of reading. I will read all of your books.

DON'T RECOMMEND THIS BOOK !
I read My Sister's keeper by Jodi Picoult because a lot of people suggested reading it. I don't see what all the rage is about.This book is EXTREMELY DRAGGING and boring. It is a 423-page book and on the 400th page they finally reveal the answer ... [edited to remove plot spoiler] .... But it shouldn't take 400 pages to get to the answer. The book is all about sadness and worriness and nothing else. There are no twists and it is definately not a "PAGE TURNER" book. If you are deciding to read this book,don't waist your time or money,because I thought it would be way different by everyone else's review.
