The Lovely Bones

Genius, gripping combination of "ground breaking" point of view plus masterful storytelling. This one sticks with you- forever.

really really depressing

This is the most unusual book I ever read. The first few chapters are very hard to read especially if you have children.

Another "I was murdered and my ghost is helping get the killer" book. This one sounded like I would like it, and I did to a point. However, I just couldn't finish it, because the descriptions of this young girls brutal treatment by the killer gave me the creeps. I just couldn't justify grossing myself out to see how it ended.
