My sisters keeper

this book was excellent, so good that i became a complete hermit while reading it (sorry kids!). I loved the way all the characters were portrayed as it gave the book depth, i so wanted to find out what was wrong with Campbell! I'm off to the library now to get some more Jodi Picoult books!

unforgettable

I thought this book was an absolute eye opener that provoked such thought, emotion and opinion from the reader. My family has also been through a situation which relates a little to this so I read this novel with a background understanding. Picoult expressed emotions with such honesty and truth, which made "My sisters keeper" such an unforgettable story. The book was AWESOME!

I absolutely loved this book!

I loved My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult. The writing was wonderful. And, as I'm 13 years old as well, I felt that I could really connect with Anna's character, as we seemed to be interested in the same things, and i found myself relating to the way she reacted in many situations. I really really enjoyed this book, and I very highly recommend it.

[edited to remove plot spoiler]. I Believed though that this overall was a good novel, decent at best, didnt wow me.

Rushed ending

I agree with reviewer, Suzanne, regarding the ending. It was so abrupt, and it made me incredibly angry. [edited to remove plot spoiler].

Brilliant!

One of the best books I've read in a long time. The way it's written from every characters point of veiw makes it very thought provoking and difficult to decide what you would do in that situation. Even better than The Pact in my opinion!

My Sisters Keeper

'My Sisters Keeper' is a fantastic book, full of tear-jerking moments and clever use of language. I finished the book about 15 mins ago, cried for about 5mins and then jumped straight onto the computer! I'm not actually joking either, it's 10:03pm right now! Well done Jodi, you're amazing. [edited to remove plot spoiler] It is just one of those books that you know you will think about for months. Wonderful.

Thought-provoking, but disappointing ending

I also read this book as a book club read; I found it well-written and thought-provoking. I will probably read other books by this author.

But I hated the ending - probably can't be too specific about why without giving away major spoilers. [remainder of review deleted to avoid plot spoiler]
