Book Review: My Sister's Keeper - Jodi Picoult
Oh what a heart breaking book. If you don't know what happens in this book, I will politely assume you have been living under a rock as it has been out for a whopping 20 years. If you have seen the film and not read the book, you really should read the book.
The book follows Anna who is the sister of Kate, who is has had cancer for years. Kate is just getting sicker and Anna is supposed to give Kate blood and organs and all sorts. The book follows Anna as she files for medical emancipation from her parents. Funnily enough, the whole way through the book I thought it was uncannily similar to the film.
Then I came to the end. Let me tell you, the end of this book is 100% more heart breaking, traumatising even. Completely different to the film. Outrageous and beautifully written. The whole book is beautifully written. Jodi Picoult's handling of such a delicate nature is fantastic! There is humour where there needs to be humour and heart break where that needs to be too. It was a brilliant book. I feel like saying I enjoyed it wouldn't be write but it was a captivating read. 5⭐
