I liked the perspective the story took. It was an interesting perspective to have the murder victim narrate her own story. I enjoyed the first half of the book, but the second half of the book seemed to lose its way. I didn't like Susie making contact with Ray Singh at the end of the story. It seemed very out of place. If the author would have contained the story to the murder and the family dynamics around the murder, the story would have been more compelling for me. (  ) jguidry | May 28, 2021 |  After getting over a little confusion in the beginning and starting to realize that book jumped from past, to present, to future throughout every chapter, I began to love the book. I was horrified by the death of Susie and wanted to keep reading and find out what would happen next to her family and her killer. Alice Sebold uses such beautiful language and such great analogies to explain the feelings that each and every character are going through! I was able to connect so well to each and every character (except maybe the killer). The author also used a great concept for the idea of heaven which I thought was very original. I would highly recommend this book to just about everyone! The idea of family is strong throughout and many different people would have no problem connecting to the characters. (  ) courty4189 | Mar 24, 2021 | Absolutely loved this book. It was a bit slow going in some places but absolutely beautiful. And the ending is perfect, wrapping up every line of the book and yet giving you something to think about. ( ) Nicole_girl | Mar 8, 2021 | Borrowed from AACC library. Picked for light reading, turned out being more tiefgründig than I thought. Überraschenderweise hat das Buch sogar zum Nachdenken angeregt und war dennoch eine Freude zu lesen. Language wasn't too hard or difficult (hat keine Barriere zum Lesen dargestellt). All in all, I was very pleased with this book and don't regret having taken it off the shelf. Would recommend to people that are looking for something easy to read language-wise, relatively short and simple. I really appreciate the unique POV (you'll know what I mean if you read the book). Took me a month to read while just reading it on the side of my college studies, so not fastest pace on my part, but point being, story stays memorable enough that you don't have to rush through it/run a marathon to finish it. (  ) amberdahlwijk | Jan 21, 2021 | A great book written from a point of view that is rarely seen. ( ) Weezer41 | Dec 27, 2020 |
 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.
