The lovely bones by alice sebold

Hey peeps! I have been wanting to do something like this for a while so, yup. This is my first book review and if you've read The Lovely Bones before tell me what you think and if you read it after you read this then tell me how it was! Leave comments!! No, this was not found online and I didn't buy this (then again why would I because this isn't homework this is a blog that I am doing voluntarily...) Okay so here you go!

Murder, mystery, pain, love, and heaven are all parts of the exciting book The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. This book gave an interesting twist to life after death. Throughout this exciting and suspenseful novel Susie Salmon watches over her family as her dad grieves over her death, her mom lies, cheats and leaves, and her brother and sister grow up to be older than she can ever be.

The Lovely Bones is a very beautiful book full of emotions such as love, anger, sadness, and confusion. It gives a new meaning to death and makes people appreciate life. It is a truthful book that doesn’t try to make life or death, heaven or earth, seem perfect. Some people write books about people with the perfect life, and then it gets messed up but all is good and well in the end. The truth is that when we read those books we are reading a fantasy, The Lovely Bones shows the truth, how life can be hard.
