    Yeah I've read it. I really liked the book. And if you have a sister I think you'll cry many, many times. Its an emotional book about a girl who is born to save her older sister who has cancer. She wants rights to her own body because she thinks the only reason she was born was to save the life of her sister. She goes to one of the best lawyers and asks for his help. They go to court and blahblahblah. The ending isn't what I expected. It's a lot sadder actually. I'm almost 100% sure you'll enjoy it & Happy Reading!~

    I own it but I haven't got around to reading it yet.

    I want to read it before I see the film though. I've heard it is really good.

    I read the book, It was such a great book that I shead some tears at the end. I recommend reading it first though, the movie has a different ending then the book.

    I read the book after I had watched the movie and enjoyed it even after I had seen the movie first. Some of the topics they touched upon the the book were amazing to read and I enjoyed reading about her brother Jesse when he popped up for chapters in the book because hearing his voice for certain events was totally different compared to the others views.

    I would definitely recommend the book to anyone, but I warn that it does get really sad at points.

    I read it when I was ten years old, awful long time ago. My parents allowed me to pick any book at the airport, because we had a long plane ride ahead of us.

    The ending took me by surprise as well. I have heard that the film is not a faithful adaption...? But I haven't seen the film, and like I said -- it's been awhile since I've read the book, and I would probably better appreciate it a second time through. I do not trust that I remember it very well. Book was sad. Worth your time, I think.
