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.

Brilliant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Such a topical story with a mix of everything that is needed in a great book. I think I will be disappointed seeing the movie now. The narrators were amazing and kept me enthralled from start to finish.

Fantastic book!!!
I loved reading this book! Another great one from Jodi Picoult! You will never see the the twist at the end coming! Being a similar age to Anna, I can relate to her and understand how hard it would be to be in her shoes!

Did not want it to end...
Saw the movie years ago. Forgot how it ended. So thought I'd read the book. It was easy to listen to. I loved the different narrators for the different characters. Made it very easy to follow. Story and the way it was written was encapsulating.

moving, but a bit far fetched.
A little far fetched, but moving and well written. Intune with modern family life and the reality of a illness ridden family's life.
