So unbelievable ( ![]() A gentleman I spoke to at the convention contended that this book was pure fantasy. I read it because it's come up a lot. I found it to be too close to life and not likeable enough for fantasy. It flows well. It is an interesting story. I like what she does with heaven. An exceptional book, moving, gripping and beautiful. I loved everything about it and found it to be as insightful and helpful (and hopeful) a meditation on loss as you could hope to read. Disturbing, disturbing because the answer was right there in front of them but no one choose to see it. And I do have to say that the similarity to the scene in the movie "Ghost" with Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore where Whoopie Goldberg allows Patrick's spirit to invade her body so that he can interact with Demi one last time, being copied if you will in this book was a bit much of a stretch for me. Otherwise I though the book was a good read overall. I love this book mostly because of its ideas about heaven
Sebold's compelling and sometimes poetic prose style and unsparing vision transform Susie's tragedy into an ultimately rewarding novel. Although some sections tend toward melodrama... other passages are dreamy and lyrical. Most striking is Sebold's mastery of a teenager's voice, from such small details as Susie's Strawberry-Banana Kissing Potion to her completely believable thought processes. An extraordinary, almost-successful debut that treats sensational material with literary grace, narrated from heaven by the victim of a serial killer and pedophile. Don't start "Lovely Bones" unless you can finish it. The book begins with more horror than you could imagine, but closes with more beauty than you could hope for. Sebold takes an enormous risk in her wonderfully strange début novel: her narrator, Susie Salmon, is dead—murdered at the age of fourteen by a disturbed neighbor—and speaks from the vantage of Heaven. Such is the author's skill that from the first page this premise seems utterly believable... If in the end she reaches too far, the book remains a stunning achievement.
