Title: Unresolved Issues
Review: I read My Sister's Keeper for the first time as a part of the 2012 World Book Night. Picoult is a captivating and suspenseful writer. She creates unpredictable drama filled with momentum and insight. The entire book switches first person voices between each of the characters. This is somewhat unsettling as she develops them to an interesting point and then switches to another character. After a while, the reader acclimates to this style. Throughout the book the writer builds complexity and emotion, but then lets readers down with a convenient ending which mechanically resolves the issues and at the same time leaves them entirely unresolved. The ending does not match the complexity of the rest of the book. Apart from this, the book is well-written and an excellent read.
