Title: Great Expectations
Product review: I read this book. I am now, periodically, reading the reviews with great interest (as well as reading another book with an unusual presentation, Norman Thomas Remick's "West Point"). People seem to either love Alice Sebold's "The Lovely Bones", or hate it. I think it is due to the enormous amount of PR it has had, for some reason that I for one certainly cannot explain. The PR has created great expectations. Some people may have expected too much. Though far from perfect, I still rate it at least a 5(-) star book of fiction owing to a creative and interesting presentation that I enjoyed.Also recommended: Norman Thomas Remick's "West Point: ...Thomas Jefferson", another creative presentation I am reading that, unlike "The Lovely Bones", is non-fiction and quite a little education so far.
