The Lovely Bones

Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on + 5 more book reviews
Helpful Score: 3


I just finished reading Sebold's first novel, "Lucky", and must admit that she has become one of my favorite authors after having read only two books. She writes with such truth and emotion in "The Lovely Bones" in was hard not to become emotionally connected to the story. Sebold is a great memoir writer (Lucky) as is she a story teller (The Lovely Bones). The Lovely Bones is an interesting story and Sebold has told it with great detail and care, its a story I will never forget and a book I will share and re-read time and time again.
