My+Sister's+Keeper

**__My Sister's Keeper__** by Jodi Picoult


 * __Summary__**: How would you feel if you were genetically engineered to be an organ donor for your big brother or sister? What if helping your sibling meant that you couldn't do what you wanted in life because you had to help? Anna decides to emancipate herself from her parents for the rights to her own body; a decision that will not only test the family, but possibly rip them apart and even kill her sister.

[|Movie]: A movie adaptation was created in 2009 starring Cameron Diaz and Abigail Breslin. The amazing ending from the novel was changed for the movie. A perfect example of when the book is better than the movie. The movie is good, but if you've read the book, it is very disappointing (though still worth watching to see the interpretation of the novel).
