Tawatchai Mahissaya _studio — I picked this up for a quick beach read...and had no idea how emotionally invested I would become in this story. The central character of the story is Anna, a 13 yr. old girl whose older sister, kate, has had leukemia since the age of 2. Anna was basically chosen (out of 4 fertilized eggs) because she was a genetic match for Kate, and they wanted to use her cord blood for Kate. In her 13 yrs, Anna has not only donated her cord blood, but her blood and bone marrow more than once. Kate is now in need of a kidney transplant, and Anna's parents want her to donate one of her kidneys. Anna is suing her parents for custody of her body, and wants to make donation choices her own. As a mother, I was emotionally conflicted throughout the entire story, taking sides with each character as I read them. I still don't have the answers, but I walked away from the story appreciating the strength of family, and of parenting, and how, as a mother, I make choices every day for and about my children, without even a thought of who I love best. What if someone made me answer that question in a courtroom? I love them all in different ways. Picault is so gifted in her descriptions of moments: "Why are terms of endearment always foods? Honey, cookie, sugar, pumpkin. It's not like caring about someone is enough to sustain you." or "My chest feels full of glitter and helium, the way it used to when I was little and riding my father's shoulders at twilight.." Great read.
