The Lovely Bones Audiobook

" The ending could have been better.... "

" Definitely a disturbing read, but like "Room," it's handled with sensitivity and insight. "

" Disturbind, interesting, love, sad "

" The book is even better than the movie "

" A great book. Afterlife. But also ugliness in human sin "

" Pretty creepy for my 8th grade self to read. Very good book, teaches you life skills and how a young girl should think ahead and be guarded in modern society "

" I just can't make myself finish this book. "

" I liked the ending, it kept me thinking. "

" Disturbing...but well written. "

" Wow some haters out there, I loved it and I loved the film. Perhaps I didn't care about a plot or the grammar or the descriptions and just went with it, just let myself go in it. Lovely bones, lovely story, I hope my heaven is like that! "

" This is one of my favorite books. "

" I loved how it was written. and although it was sad it had an inspiring message of love triumphing over all "

" Great book - unnerving but well written and intriguing. "

" I have a tough time reading book where horrible things happen to children, so I couldn't finish it. "

" Hmmmm.... I didn't love this book or hate it. I think the perspective that it was written from was a neat idea. However, the book is so depressing most of the time. I think my opinion on this one is indifferent. "

" One of the best mysteries I ever read it was more than a mystery it was heart wrenching. "

" Quite good writing for a first novel. I did enjoy it (audiobook) "

" Why? Why do I have two copies of this? Why did I read this even though I *knew* I wouldn't like it? Why? Why? Why? This was my first book of 2013. I guess I wanted something different. I got it and remembered why I don't like books like this. "

" Great book. Not the case with the movie. "

" Read the first chapter and promptly returned the book. DID NOT LIKE. "

" Loved the book. Movie sucked though. "

" It was good up until the strange supernatural body possession part "

" OK. It was actually really bad. "

" This book was good, but it made me cry! I couldn't stand some of the dark scenes. I felt like yelling "Run!" while I was reading it, but of course, that didn't help any. It was so much better than the movie. But that is the case with most movies based on books. "

" I didn't hate the book as it seems a lot of others did. I found it to be a pretty decent read, with no major faults. "

" Intriguing point of view, very insightful. "

" Would have gotten four stars had it not been for the ending. "

" The book was much better than the movie. Such a sad story. I read this in my early 20's before having kids. I think now that I am a mom I couldn't read it again! "

" This is one of those books that I assumed I wouldn't like --sexual abuse and murder being sort of difficult to be enthusiastic about but, oddly and beautifully, this is somehow more about hope and is funny as well as painful "

" This is a great book, ruined by a far to whimsical movie. "

" I could not finish this book. Almost everyone I've talked to who had read the book loved it. Maybe I will go back someday and try again but for now my too read list is way too long. "

" I wish I had never read this book. It creeps in and settles like darkness. Disturbing, and yet I couldn't put it down. It is well written with many graphic details that I couldn't seem to get out of my mind. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with children. "

" yuk. hated it. I'm left with some disturbing images of a little girl being raped and killed and though the middle of the book did get a little better the ending was stupid. What a waste of time. "

" Great book, next going to read Lucky. I saw the movie before reading the book and found them very different, of course I like the book better! "

" I didn't think it was possible for a book to be even worse than a movie. I was wrong. "

" Well written. A good read if a little challenging for those who aren't that comfortable with the concept of death. "

" This book was really good.I couldn't put it down. "

" I liked the beginning but the ending was a little bland. "

" Some parts were a bit precious, but the overall story was good. Sad and good. "
