The Lovely Bones- Nicole Klenklen


                I read the book “The Lovely Bones” by Alice Sebold. This book is about a girl who gets murdered in her suburb town. She tells the story from her point of view in heaven and from her past and how things connect with one another. She tells you about how her life is in heaven but how much she misses everyone. She watches her family go through the hurt and the pain of the loss of her. She watches the person that killed her also and sees how and where he hides everything. While she is watching the detectives try to help her family to figure out who is was she tries to give signals and signs to them on earth. As the story gets closer to the ending the family gets closer and closer to finding out who the murder was. There is alot of dramatic irony in this book.

                Susie is the girl who got killed by her neighbor when she was coming home from school one evening. She is the main character of this story and also the narrator. She tells the story in 1st person from he view from heaven. She tells what she sees in heaven and the new friends she makes. You also learn some stories of how the other people in heaven passed.

                Mr. Harvey is the man who killed Susie. He acts oblivous to everything that is going on and acts like its just a normal day. He goes along with what everyone says and acts as clueless as everyone else when he was the one who committed the crime.

                This book was every enjoyable. It keeps you wanting to read more and more as the story goes on. It is a kind of book that always makes you want to know more and wonder what is going to happen next. It’s a fantastic read and I hope you decide to read it one day! You WONT be disappointed! (:
