Publisher Description
"My name was Salmon, like the fish; first name, Susie. I was fourteen when I was murdered on December 6, 1973."
So begins the story of Susie Salmon, who is adjusting to her new home in heaven, a place that is not at all what she expected, even as she is watching life on earth continue without her -- her friends trading rumors about her disappearance, her killer trying to cover his tracks, her grief-stricken family unraveling. Out of unspeakable tragedy and loss, The Lovely Bones succeeds, miraculously, in building a tale filled with hope, humor, suspense, even joy.
Customer Reviews
Good story, not so good narrator.
It’s too bad that the author didn’t hire someone good to read this book. I would have made it to the end of the audiobook. Jokes on me though, I had to also get it in paper because I just couldn’t listen to the voice and stay awake.
