A book review/summary on "The Lovely Bones" by Alice Sebold.

…

…one genre can do it justice with just one word. The Lovely Bones is a novel for all. There is a bit of mystery, a dash of suspense, and it is lightly seasoned with a splash of romance. Yet throughout the novel's engrossing pages echoes Susie's last words: "The dead truly talk to us, that in the air between the living, spirits bob and weave and laugh with us. They are the oxygen we breathe."
