Title: A well written story of a young girls spirit after death
Product review: New and interesting look at death, told by a young girl who is murdered by her neighbor, and ethereally hangs around afterward to watch after her parents and friends. Unable to communicate, she watches as they suffer the after effects of loosing her, and watches as her killer goes unpunished. We follow Susie, as she follows them, and tells us of her regrets, things she wishes she had done in life, and what she wishes for her parents and friends in their lives without her. Only four stars instead of five, because toward the ending Ms. Sebold let the "fantasy" part of this book slip a little too far. I enjoyed the story as Susie told it from her afterlife, but when she ventures briefly back into this world, I felt the reasoning was off and the concept unacceptable and a bit silly. All in all, a pretty good book, worthy of four stars.
