A: I'd love to be Anna Fitzgerald from My Sister's Keeper! As weird as I might be sounding right now, this is one of my favorite books. I think Anna has dark hair and blue eyes. She is a brave person for standing up for what she believes in. Like Anna, I've had multiple surgeries. I had cancer, and in February 2012, I had 3 surgeries for it.
She is a great choice - what a hard thing to do. And you, how scary to have three surgeries in one month. I hope you're feeling better ! :)

Great choice! I haven't read that one, but I saw the movie version and really loved it! :D Old follower. My FFs are at Musings on Fantasia and LKHill. Happy Friday! :D
ReplyDeleteGreat choice! I didn;t read the book but watched the movie. Cried like a baby so I'm sure it would have been way worse in the book. Anyway I am so so sorry about your cancer and I hope everything is all better! New follower and if you feel like checking out my F&F: http://reesesreviews.blogspot.com/2012/12/feature-follow-13.html
ReplyDeleteCongrats on becoming the feature! 8)
I've only seen the film version of My Sister's Keeper, and, since I'm not a fan of "cancer stories", I didn't get around to the book. It's great that you can identify with her so much, though.

I couldn't watch the movie or read the book. Cancer is just something hard for me to watch movies about or read books about. I had cancer years ago and have lost lots of family to it. I hope yours stays away and never comes back.

ReplyDeleteCongrats on being featured! I haven't heard of this book. I only can imagine how hard must be going through that. I hope you get better and don't need any more surgeries.

old follower...Congrats on being featured! Yay for you!I like your answer for this week's question. I went back to childhood books and chose Cherry Ames created by Helen wells.I think a lot of my values were shaped by Cherry's values and I absolutely adored the nurse with character and morals.
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading!
