We read My Sister's Keeper for an online book club and I thought it spurred some great discussions about the ethical issues of being a parent with a sick child.. and conceiving another to help the first. Very intersting!

we read my sister's keeper, and it was definitely the most productive discussion we've had! what a great book!

I read my Sister's Keeper. I found myself upset that the book did not end the way that I thought it should. It was one of the first times I felt myself upset with an author for choosing to end a book a certain way. However, when I went to see the movie years later. I found myself upset again that they would change the ending. It retrospect My Sister's Keeper is one of those novels I will never forget.

Known for expertly blending provocative themes with family conflicts and difficult moral choices, Jodi Picoult keeps her readers riveted with heartfelt yet impeccably researched novels, like the richly suspenseful Second Glance and the poignant and controversial family drama.

I read my life with a group of ninth graders. What a great book for this age group! We have had many interesting discussions, although the group was disappointed at the end ..

    Who is Book Club Girl?

    • Book Club Girl is: a member of a book club and an avid reader who spent most of her childhood immersed in a book, an English major who considered library school until she realized it was all about computers, so turned to publishing, where she now works (but she vows to talk about books from all over and not to simply flog those from her own house). She was single, lived in the city, met a man, moved to the 'burbs, and is now a wife, a stepmother, a mother, and in her spare time, a fledgling blogger dedicated to sharing great books, news and tips with book club girls everywhere.

    My Review Policy

    • I review fiction and nonfiction that is appropriate for book clubs. This includes literary and some women's commercial fiction as well as memoir and narrative nonfiction. I do not review self-help, thrillers, mysteries, horror, or fantasy. I have a fondness for YA literature and while the blog is not devoted to it (well, except for my obsession with the Betsy-Tacy series), I will occasionally review some YA books. The best way to reach me to request a review is to email me at bookclubgirl AT gmail DOT com.
