I really recommend My Sister's Keeper. It is filled with great characterization, plot, setting, and anything you could ask for in a great book. I think girls would especially like it, but guys may like it too. It has a lot of moments that make you tear up, but this book really makes you appreciate life more. Nothing has really happened after the last summary I gave, but it is still making me not want to put the book down. The author did an amazing job and I hope you end up picking it up!
