I just read the synapsis from amazon.com

It sounds so sad!!!!!!!!!!! Wow.

Re: My Sister's Keeper

Wow Bon. All I can say is WOW. I started reading it at 11:30 last night and I couldn't put it down - I went to bed at 3...

And don't you know you're not supposed to read synopses on books, they kill it for you! Silly girl. They say this sad tale, this exciting tale, etc. and already you're biased.

Get this book. It's very, very raw. Oh man, great book!

Will I be depressed though? I usually like to keep my reading pleasures light and happy!

Ever read 'Kite Runner' I was so emotional after reading that book, that honestly I thought I was going to throw up. And I wasn't crying upset, I was just so wrapped up in the emotions of the book. Great read if you didn't yet!!

Thanks! I'll check it out! I also really liked 'I Know This Much Is True' - Wally Lamb. It's a long read but worth it.

Keep the recs coming, I veered off into romance-land (Nora Roberts) for like a year!!!

The other Wally Lamb book--She's Come Undone-- was a good read. Not really sad though...just a good story.

Also The Pact (its going to be amovie I think) Perfect Match, and Vanishing Acts by Jodi Picoult are good ones. There are a few that are a bit slow to get into, I have to return to those...Like Picture Perfect.

Can you tell I like to read? If you ever need a book Reccomendation, just FM me!! I read 'em all!

Re: My Sister's Keeper

I will def come to you for recs! Thanks!

She's Come Undone was good, but it left me feeling kinda icky....

I was just going to recommend kite runner! It is an amazing book, sobbed like a baby, but it is very enlightening.

Re: My Sister's Keeper

oh and after all the sad sob books you can read Bergdorf Blondes. I HIGHLY recommend it, it's hysterical.
