Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold

How can death be so lovely?

A young woman is brutally murdered as she goes home from school and Alice Sebold's "The Lovely Bones" lets us in on the life that Susie Salmon leaves behind. One of the more interesting books revolving around family dramas that I've read recently, this book has that added drive of mystery in it and just the right kind of drama that let's you sink in for pages on end. If there is something that this book lacks though. It would probably be closure.
