Lovely Bones

I'm still not sure why it's called that, but the book is pretty good. It's loosely about a serial killer... and mostly about one of his victims and her family... for better or worse... and about heaven. I picture of heaven which I have to admit, I rather enjoy.

My favorite part of the book, though, is still the first few opening lines:
"My name was Salmon, like the fish; first name Susie. I was fourteen when I was murdered on December 6, 1973."


So far, with about 3/4 of the book behind me, it's a really good read.
