Jodi Picoult
About this listen
New York Times best-selling author Jodi Picoult is widely acclaimed for her keen insights into the hearts and minds of real people. Now she tells the emotionally riveting story of a family torn apart by conflicting needs and a passionate love that triumphs over human weakness.
Anna is not sick, but she might as well be. By age 13 she has undergone countless surgeries, transfusions, and shots so that her older sister, Kate, can somehow fight the leukemia that has plagued her since childhood. The product of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, Anna was conceived as a bone marrow match for Kate - a life and a role that she has never challenged...until now. Like most teenagers, Anna is beginning to question who she truly is. But unlike most teenagers, she has always been defined in terms of her sister - and so Anna makes a decision that for most would be unthinkable, a decision that will tear her family apart and have perhaps fatal consequences for the sister she loves.
My Sister's Keeper examines what it means to be a good parent, a good sister, a good person. Is it morally correct to do whatever it takes to save a child's life, even if that means infringing upon the rights of another? Is it worth trying to discover who you really are if that quest makes you like yourself less? Should you follow your own heart or let others lead you? Once again, in My Sister's Keeper, Jodi Picoult tackles a controversial real-life subject with grace, wisdom, and sensitivity.

A story that makes you think
This story sure makes you think about your own morals and ethics and makes you wonder what you would do in that situation.
The story was really well written and the narrator did a fantastic job as Well. This is the first book I read by this author. I would certainly try another one.

Heartbreaking story
I can recommend this book wholeheartedly, if you're ready to cry your eyes out at the end. Heart wrenching. The narrators did a stellar job.

Liked it
I saw the movie first and a few months ago, I read a comment on Facebook saying the book didn't have the same ending, so I had to read that story! My only complaint is that sometimes it's hard to know when you are in the story. Is Sara still talking about something in 1993 or the present? Apart from that, the story was amazing and the end had me in tears. I also liked that every character has their unique voice.

I hate books and I recommend this one
Best book I’ve ever read, it’s long and boring during some parts, but so much different from the movie and really good

Excellent Audible Find
I read the book years ago and on a whim downloaded the audiobook. I was not disappointed! The multi-voice style really works with this story and created a very engaging experience. #Audible1

Pretty good book except for...
This was a pretty enjoyable read. The narrators were fantastic. Overall, it was great, the one thing I did not like about the story was the ending. it could’ve been so much better, the author had two possible scenarios to end the story with instead she chooses the easy way out which in my opinion was the absolute wrong way to end the book. in short, my opinion, great book terrible ending.
