Book Review & Giveaway: "The Lovely Bones" - 3 Winners! US/Canada (Ends 11/19)
A few years ago I read the book The Lovely Bones
On her way home from school in December 1973, Susie Salmon was raped and murdered by a serial killer, who she knows. The story is told as she watches from heaven, her friends and family’s reactions to her death. She watches her family as they change and grow and she struggles to accept her death. Now even though she is in heaven it does not have a religious tone, but deals with Susie’s own version of heaven.
The Lovely Bones is sad, frustrating, and yet it is so hard to put down. I actually read the book in two sittings. I have to warn you though the description of Susie’s rape and attack is chilling and is powerful. That is where I got so mad, but kept reading because I wanted to hear her story.
In December 2009, Lovely Bones is coming to movie theaters. If you haven’t read the book , I highly recommend reading it, especially if you think you are going to see the movie. I know I am curious about the movie to see how Dreamworks interprets what happens. You can watch the movie trailer here.
Alice Sebold is also the author of Lucky: A Memoir

I saw a review of this book years back and told myself I wanted to read this. Sadly, I haven't. What caught my interest is that the story is told by a child, who from heaven, watches all the people who are struggling with her death. I wanted to somehow feel what she feels by reading this book.

I have read Alice Sebold's book Lucky and it is horrifying, sad and inspirational all at the same time. It was such a good book and it shows her strength and courage. I'd love to read this new book by her. I'd also like to read "I am Ozzy" by Ozzy Osbourne. Thank you for this giveaway.
