The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold
3.0
I was surprised to find that I actually enjoyed this book! In our English classes we were asked to chose a novel from a list of around 10 books, there were the usuals like, Lord of the Flies, Catcher in the Rye, etc. I chose this book on a whim for I already knew what happened in all the others due to friends and family who had read the stories.
The Lovely Bones was a heart wrenching tale of one girl who was murdered by her next-door neighbor, the story follows the trials faced by her family still on earth as she watches from heaven.
Though the author isn't the best of writers she captures a raw emotion that sticks with you months after you read! I still to this day will find myself contemplating and analyzing what I absorbed from the story. I definitely recommend!
