This book was great!!!
From the first line of the book you are hooked to the story. It was very hard to put the book down. I finished the book in about two days. Sebold wrote the story in a very interesting way.

It is easy to read the book and not have conflict with your beliefs and the book. Another good thing about this book is that you know more than the other characters in the book. So you keep reading to find out if the other characters figure out what really happened. This is a great book and I suggest it to everyone who likes a good murder/mystery. Alice Sebold did a great job.
