Bring on the tears...

My Sister’s Keeper, the lovable book by famed author Jodi Picoult, is going to be released in movie version June 26th. This novel is the most read and successful out of all the sixteen Picoult novels. The book chronicles a girl, her family, and her lawyer, after she sues to have medical emancipation. She wants control of her own body because she was born, genetically modified, in order to save her sister who has cancer. So many points in the book brought myself, as well as other readers, to tears. It is an emotionally captivating book that is so heartfelt on page and hopefully the transition to the big screen will do the book justice. Thousands are anxiously awaiting the release. When you do go to the movie, don’t forget to bring a box of tissues.
