This is such a sad story, and it really hits home. It's about a girl who was born just to save her sister from cancer. When she gets older, she decides to sue her parents because she doesn't want to be her sister's donor. This is an exciting book, and definitely a worthwhile read.

This is a fantastic series about a girl in love with a vampire. She has to get through the obstacles of being friends with a werewolf, because werewolves and vampires are enemies. It is definitely an addicting series worth reading.
