A review by radiojupiter
The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold

challenging dark emotional sad slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

3.5

It was hard to listen to, but I did like it.  Didn’t laud or fetishize sexual violence, didn’t fall into very gory descriptions, and surprised me several times. It doesn’t read like a crime novel, more like an exploration of grief and death.
