Can't you tell that I am completely stressed out and that my sleep schedule is a mess? How else would I be coming up with so many non-work related book reviews?
This is an interesting novel - the narrative begins with the violent death of a teenage girl, Susie, at the hands of a serial killer and is narrated by the young girl herself - who comments from "her heaven" on the aftermath of her death on earth. The Lovely Bones is first and foremost a book about families coping with loss. It is unique, however, in that the family is joined in their grief by the lost one herself.
This is a great novel and a fairly quick read.
