This is possibly THE MOST FANTASTIC, tragic , heart breaking story you will ever read/watch. The author: Alice Sebold is a rape victim herself, making the story even more heart wrenching as undoubtedly she draws from personal experience."It is the story of a teenage girl who, after being raped and
murdered, watches
from heaven."
The story affected me enormously, it sort of captured my thoughts. I literally couldn't put it down. My boyfriend even instructed me to stop as it was upsetting me so much......
But i felt it was something I needed to read and wanted to understand.
Everyone should read this book, if not watch the film.
