My Sisters Keeper



I just finished an amazing book. If you know me than you know I don't read that much anymore. Not because I don't like to read but because I don't have much time for it. I will pick up a book and it will take me a couple of months to read it.
When I saw this book on the shelves at Walmart I would notice it but had no desire to read it. One night I saw the previews for the movie coming out based on this book. It sparked my interest so next time I picked it up.
My first thought was it's going to take me 1/2 a year to read this. Small print and 500 pages!!!
When I finally decided to open it and start reading I was hooked from page one. This never happens!! I couldn't put it down. I finished it in 4-5 days. I would sneak off some where just to read it.
It is an amazing book. It tugs at every emotion you have. There is happiness, sadness, sickness, love etc... You can not get through this book with out crying especially if you are a mother.
The sister bond and connection in this book is like no other. The parents what they go through and are willing to do, as a parent you know you would do the same.
There are twist and turns. Just when you thought you had something figured out you really didn't .

Yes, I loved that book too.
Another 2 books that I couldn't put down this year: "The Help" and "Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas."
