My Sister's Keeper

I don't go to movies much anymore. When I saw the preview on TV for this movie, I was really interested in the storyline. So I checked out the book from the library. I am halfway through the book. It is so good that I have a hard time putting it down and I've even been staying up late reading. From everyone who has read the book before, they all say that I'll need a whole box of tissue for the end. Although when the following is written in a book before the first chapter, you know it's going to be sad.

"In my first memory, I am three years old and I am trying to kill my sister. . . As we got older, I didn't seem to exist, except in relation to her. I would watch her sleep across the room from me, one long shadow linking our beds, and I would count the ways. Poison, sprinkled on her cereal. A wicked undertow off the beach. Lightning striking. In the end, though, I did not kill my sister. She did it all on her own. Or at least this is what I tell myself."

I have heard the movie and the book are different. It gives me hope for the movie, but I don't know that I'll ever see it.
