Princessponti,
I don't blame you for giving up. I powered through, as it was given to me as a gift... and I felt it only polite to finish so to discuss with it's giver.
Reading the story of a young girl's violent sexual murder, told by the young girl could not have been more disturbing for me. Once I got through the first 2/3rds, and the details of the murder were not referenced, it started to get a little better.
I did find Sebolds writing however to be choppy. Did anyone else find Lovely Bones to end abruptly? I felt cheated from many lose ends tied up quickly in haste.
It's as though I read her first draft. Unfortunately, I am not interested in reading the final.

I agree, it ended on a happy note, however I sobbed for the last 50 pages.
One can only hope to experience the true, forgiving, unwaivering love that Nora has for Henry.
