The Best Read in a Long Time

I love to read books. My favorite book of all time is The Other Side of Midnight, by Sidney Sheldon. I also went through a phase where I was into Anne Rice, The Witching Hour. Since I have been taking classes along with working full time the last few years, I haven't allowed myself the luxury of reading a good book. I am afraid it will take me away from studying and there is only so much time in a day. Just recently my daughter brought me a book that she just finished and told me "I think you would like this, Mom." Then my oldest daughter said that she read it in high school as well. She said, "Don't you remember me telling you about it?" I didn't remember. Seeing that it was so popular with my daughters, I couldn't help but open the book to the first page, then I was hooked. I read it in two days. The whole time my daughter checks me and asks where I am in the book. I just finished it tonight and I have to rate it right up there with the other classics I hold dearly. I always had the idea that I could write a book and keep some notebooks in my car, on my desk, and on my computer. But after I read this book, I can't imagine being able to write a book like this. I am hoping to hear that others are familiar with this book. The book is My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult. I hope you go check it out.
