Title: I sure hope heaven is like this!
Product review: This book made me cry. Now, I'm not the type for weepy, sentimental novels. A book that tells the truth of humanity in a clear, uncluttered voice truly moves me. Alice Sebold has accomplished that here. The tale is told through the eyes of a murdered teen. As she watches her family--and her killer--from 'heaven' (a place where, happily, cats and dogs go, too, and your heaven overlaps with other heavens so everybody gets what they want AND they get to see the ones they love--and you even get a counselor to help you make the transition into 'deadness!!') we see the painful aftermath of a family living with an unsolved murder over their heads. I was angry throughout, thinking there would never be justice for this spunky girl's untimely death, but in the end, rest assured, there is. Folks, this book is worth it. It isn't drippy and sappy, but it will probably make you cry. Read it.
