Title: A guy who hates Oprah Book Club but loved this book
Product review: Based on hype, bought this book. It is thought provoking (what is death, what is heaven) disturbing (the evil of the murderer/rapist) touching (the portrate of adolescent love is right on) inventive (the whole notion of a narrator in heaven, who can observe current and past life everywhere on earth is an irresistable twist on the omnipresent narrator). Most of all the story is very good and interesting, and is told almost entirely without the sort of overwrought prose which too often infects books like this. In short, amazingly, this book rings true.
