My Sisters Keeper by Jodi Picoult is about a girl names Anna. Her older sister, Kate, suffers from Leukemia and Anna was born so that she could save her sister. Anna was planned to save her sister with her kidney. Throughout the novel, Anna gets a lawyer and wants to sue her mom for medical emancipation which basically is the freedom to make your own medical decisions. It also talks about their brother that doesn't get a lot of attention because its always about Kate and Anna. Many people have told me about this novel. I saw the movie and really enjoyed it.
