Kelsey's Book Posts

20 comments:

  1. I read my sister's keeper. This book is about a girl who was created to give up body parts for her sister, who has cancer. The girl decides she doesn't want to do that anymore, so she sues her parents. How would you feel if you found this out about you?

  2. Great question Kels. I find it really hard to think about if this was me. I couldn't imagine my parents doing this. But I would imagine I would be angry like the girl (I forget her name?). Anyway, I also think I would do just as she did when her sister asks her.....I won't say what she asks in case someone else wants to read this.

    I will say, what a tear jeaker. I read this during last year's March Break and cried as a lay beside the pool. (How embarassing ;))

  3. That sound really sad I think my mom read that book. I really like books that make me cry, but i also like suspence books, and actions books, and... well pretty much anything but these kind of books are my favourite!

  4. I don't know if I could have done what Anna did! I would have been scared for the life of my sister!

  5. I would be REALLY upset with my parents; but I still would've carried out what they wanted me to do... unless it involved a heart transplant.

  6. I would feel super scared! I'm not even sure I would have felt ok with what would be going on. But i would also not want one of my sisters to DIE! Wow i should read that book

  7. I think I wouldn't mind if it was something that I didn't need like a kidney, I also wouldn't want my sister to die but I think if I was actually faced with that I'd tell them to find someone else!

  8. I completely agree with what Anna did. It was for her siter but at the same it was for herself. If it was me, I would want to be able to go out and play without having to worry about getting sick. The girl (I don't remember her name) wanted to die; she didn't want all these hardships that she was facing to pull apart her family in the way that it was doing.

  9. It would be a difficult decision, but I know the right option. I would definetley do all I could possibly of done to help my sister live. In the end, it probably depends on what it is that I have to do.

  12. I would be totally lost. i have no idea what i would do but i deffenitly wouldnt let my sister die. In the end i would probably do as what my parents wanted me to do, and save my sister , having her alive is better than living the rest of your life knowing you could've saved your sister. once i knew she was for sure ok, i would probably do somehting to make my parents pay.. like sueing them ? its a very good movie; but its very sad, ~~ alysha

  13. Elizabeth. I think if I found out that the only reason my parents had me was to give my body to my sister i would not be happy. I think i would be willing to give my organs and such up for my sister, she is my best friend and I don't know what I would do without her.If giving up parts of me would save her I would be proud to do it . In another way I think I would be very upset with my parents, the only reason they wanted me was to save my sister. I would feel very hurt.

  14. BUT her sister wanted to die. That would change it completely! Would you want your sister to suffer from pain and depression or would you want her to leave you and be happy? Don't you think it would be selfish to not let her die when she wanted to so much...she wanted to die because she was not going to heal. The sister knew that she was killing her sister by using her body parts. That is just my opinion and no one has to agree. I know most people would think it bad to kill your sister but that is what is happening (in the opposite way than you may think. This is because Anna is being killed by her parents and her sister. The sister thought of that and let Anna know that she felt strongly about this.)

  19. I just finished twilight: breaking dawn.
    This book is about a vampire family who trusts a human, because their son,edward is completely in love with her. i find this book really interesting and at parts suspenseful. This book shows how important family actually is and how important it is to always stick with them , even through the hardest times in their lives. This family stays together, even for some of them it could have meant death. Has anyone else read this book. what did you think?

  20. I didn't read the book but i did watched the movie. I think i would give my sister my organs so she can live a longer life. But i understand why the girl did what she did. I felt that the movie was very sad but it was a interesting movie to see what was going to happen and sadly it had a very sad ending! Is the book like the movie??
