I'm on to my next novel: Jodi Picoult's My Sister's Keeper. It's about a young girl - 13 - who decides to sue her parents for medical emancipation. See, she was conceived so that she could save the life of her older sister who has leukemia. Unfortunately, as the two get older, the older sister continues to need more and more extensive "donations" until finally, she needs an organ donation. The parents - the mother - don't even really ask the girl if she is okay with it all, they just take, take, take. I'm halfway through the book and it's excellent so far. The author usually throws a twist in there and I'm wondering what it'll be. My guess is that someone other than the leukemia stricken person is going to die making the lawsuit and other sister's needed donation moot. Anyway, I'll let you know how it is.K - I'm headed for a tub of bubbles! Later bitches!
