Title: Great Book, but an unsatisfying ending...
Product review: I loved reading this novel and feel the author has a lot of talent. Alice Sebold's writing style and her little jewels of descriptions and metaphors grabbed me from the beginning of the book. I found myself wishing the story would continue (a sure sign of a good book, in my opinion). Then the ending came and ruined the reading experience and left a less than satisfying taste in my memory of great books. I hoped for a better resolution, some answers, or just some profound advice on living for the reader, and yet it felt incomplete--as if the writer had to meet a deadline. Maybe there was a profound answer that I didn't catch, but I felt the ending was too neatly wrapped and superficial compared to the rest of the novel (which offered an interesting vision of heaven).Would still recommend this book to any teen to adult reader. Quick and easy read too.
