Sebold is an incredibly talented author. The way she explained the night of the crime was outstanding. She really portrays "heaven" as an amazing place and with great detail makes you want to be in the book along with Susie going through what she went through. Sebold has an amazing imagination and it comes through in this novel. I love the story line of this book with all the flash forwards and flash backs. It makes the book more interseting and makes you want to keep reading to find out what is going to happen to Susie and the rest of her family, and if her murderer is ever going to get caught and punished for the bad things that he has done throughout his life. This book was really good and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys reading, and for anyone who enjoys books about real life event and being in suspense for most of the book.
