Anna Fitzgerald's parents only want her because she's needed to save their other child's life. She was conceived by vitro fertilization with the purpose of being a genetic match for her older sister. After some years she realizes what is happening so she goes to a lawyer to be medically emancipated, meaning she wants to have rights over her own body. She doesn't want her parents to use her anymore, she wants to have other purposes in life other than just give blood to her sister. Her parents get really mad at her decision, claiming they love her, but they don't understand that Anna doesn't want to kill her sister, she just wants to have a normal life. This drama based on a book by Jodi Picoult, is very tragic and sad, but its a really good movie because it shows how hard it can be for a child to not feel loved by their parents. This decision Anna has to make is really hard and its interesting to see how people think when it comes to really important decisions.

This was an interesting book--I liked the twist at the end--but I haven't seen the movie yet. I don't know if I want to put myself through that sadness again.
