I found that this book had me changing my opinion as the story enfolded. I found that I had much empathy for Sara, as it must be the worst thing in the world to know that your child is going to die and I think you would do anything for that child to live. But then you think of how Anna must feel......The book really makes you think on both sides of the story. And what a twist at the end....quite upsetting. Would be an excellent book for book club discussions as I would anticipate many heated debates.
