This book is about a girl who was murdered at the age of 14. The book is told from the girls the point of view as she watches over everyone all of her friends and family from what she calls "her heaven". I think that this book is a good read if you are trying to move on from something or cope from something. Even though its about a girl who is murdered it shows how her family deals with, and it can show you how to deal with things even if they don't exactly relate. Another thing that I liked about this book is that its not the kind of book that gives to much detail and drags things on, but it also isn't a book that doesn't give barely any detail. i think that the book gives just enough detail so you feel like its happening to you and like you are actually there. Before reading this book I thought it was a very girly book and that really only girls read it, but after reading it I think that boys (all teens/adults) should read it. This is personally my favorite book I have ever read, and I would definitely recommend it for others.
