Lovely Bones

I read this book because many of my high school students often talked about it. I saw it, checked it out, read it (cried a lot) and the next thing...I heard a movie is coming out...I am sure it is at a theatre near you.

The topic of this book is mature--so if you want to read it, have your family look at it first. Here's some information I found:

The book's narrator is 14-year-old murder victim Susie Salmon. Raped and killed by her neighbor, Susie ascends to heaven, where she observes how her death has affected those around her. http://www.curledup.com/luvbones.htm
