Review #68

Title- The Lovely Bones

Rating– 3.5/5

Genre- Thriller

POV- First person, past tense

Similar Books/Comps– Her One Mistake, The Cellar

My emotions-  Gross, No, Ugh, Goosebumps


Characters

Susie- fourteen when she was murdered on December 6, 1973

Plot/Blurb-

So begins the story of Susie Salmon, who is adjusting to her new home in heaven, a place that is not at all what she expected, even as she is watching life on earth continue without her — her friends trading rumors about her disappearance, her killer trying to cover his tracks, her grief-stricken family unraveling. Out of unspeakable tragedy and loss, The Lovely Bones succeeds, miraculously, in building a tale filled with hope, humor, suspense, even joy.

Best part-

No good parts, just awful, terrible, please stop! So scary. This book should never have been written!


What I’d change-

Unforgettable-This book still gives me nightmares and I wish I never read it!
