My Sister's Keeper is a deeply moving story of two sisters, Anna and Kate. Kate is born with leukemia and suffers all her life because of her medical condition. Anna is born as a savior sister to help Kate deal with her illness and provide medical assistance through surgical transplants whenever necessary.

When Anna turns 13 she is told that she will have to give up a kidney to help Kate survive longer, which troubles Anna deeply. She applies for medical emancipation and hopes to be able to make all her medical decisions on her own without the influence of her parents. The lives of the two girls, their parents, and their brother Brian will never be the same again after the litigation ensues.

My Sister's Keeper is a tale of sacrifice, individuality, and the true meaning of sibling love. The delinquent brother who craves for attention, the confused and frightened parents who desperately want to save their child, the lawyer with a heart of gold who is fighting for Anna, all make for a compelling read. This is the film tie-in edition of the book and was published by Hodder Paperbacks in 2009 and is available in paperback.
