The Lovely Bones

Reading this book was like being in an eerie, sad but yet wonderful dream. The content of The Lovely Bones was very sad and I don't think I smiled at all while reading the book. Alice Sebold was able to create vivid pictures of the scenes she wrote. Most of the time when I read books I seem them in my head as if they were movies, but with The Lovely Bones this was not the case. When reading this book I felt like I was seeing the book in my head as different photographs and snapshots of the events. Overall, I recommend this book to those who like books with more of a surreal read and want the story to keep you on the edge of your seat.
