My Sister's Keeper

This is a book I read recently.
I think it is going to be made (or has already been made) into a movie.

It is about a family of 5.
They have 3 children - the eldest a son and then 2 girls.

The 2nd child was diagnosed with leukemia when she was very young, and because of the lack of a suitable donor, genetic engineering was used to 'create' the 3rd child - so both the daughters have very similar DNAs (I guess).

From a young age, the younger daughter (Anna) had been donating bone marrow, blood products etc. for her elder sister, Kate.
Now, Kate has renal failure.
She needs a kidney.
The most suitable match - Anna.

But Anna doesn't want to be a donor anymore.
And she wants to sue her parents so that she has the right to make her own decisions regarding her body.

The story goes on about how each of them feel about what is going on, the stresses one faces when there is a sick member in the family.
Anna is not really cruel, she doesn't want the sister to die, but then she has also had enough of unnecessary procedures.
The parents are trying everything they can just so that Kate can live a little longer.
Will it all work out?
Will Kate get the kidney?
Will she live if she gets the kidney?

One thing I like about the story is the way it is written - basically you get to go into every characters head.

I enjoyed most of the book, but I think the ending was a bit too abrupt.
Overall, a good book.
A must read.
A sad story, but it made me think of certain things in different ways.
