MY SISTER'S KEEPER
If you've been reading mnay reference to Jodi Picoult's My Sister's Keeper it's because it really is an extraordinary book. It's timely, it involves you with the subject and the characters, and it never preaches.
Sara and Brian have a great marriage: an intelligent son, a younger sister, and lots of love. Then baby Kate is diagnosed with a particularly malignant form of leukemia. One suggestion is an infusion of stem cells from the fetal cord of a compatible donor. Sara and Brian have an embryo selected with all the right genes, so Kate can live.
