\*\*Please note the 1:30pm start time

For May, we have a reservation outdoors on the GORGEOUS patio at The Point! We will read and discuss "My Sister's Keeper" by Jodi Picoult. This book has been around for awhile and they made a (TERRIBLE) movie adaptation. It's one of my favorites ever, so I can't wait to discuss with you all. PLEASE do not see the movie as a substitution for the book, they completely butchered the ending!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anna is not sick, but she might as well be. By age 13 she has undergone countless surgeries, transfusions, and shots so that her older sister, Kate, can somehow fight the leukemia that has plagued her since childhood. The product of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, Anna was conceived as a bone marrow match for Kate—a life and a role that she has never challenged ... until now. Like most teenagers, Anna is beginning to question who she truly is. But unlike most teenagers, she has always been defined in terms of her sister—and so Anna makes a decision that for most would be unthinkable, a decision that will tear her family apart and have perhaps fatal consequences for the sister she loves.

*My Sister's Keeper* examines what it means to be a good parent, a good sister, a good person. Is it morally correct to do whatever it takes to save a child's life, even if that means infringing upon the rights of another? Is it worth trying to discover who you really are if that quest makes you like yourself less? Should you follow your own heart or let others lead you? Once again, in *My Sister's Keeper*, Jodi Picoult tackles a controversial real-life subject with grace, wisdom, and sensitivity.
