CPR Blog #1 Book #2

The book I chose is The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. I have been wanting to read this book since 9th grade but haven't had the opportunity to read it until now. My friend read it when she was in 9th grade and told me that she recommended the book because it was really interesting so then I was going to read it but kept forgetting to get the book from the library. When I saw it on Rachel's book shelf in her room, I kept wanting to ask her if I could borrow it but I kept forgetting and when I remembered we had to read a CPR book this month I automatically thought of The Lovely Bones. 

The lovely Bones is a very well-known book and even won the "Book of the Year" award. What really caught my attention was when I was reading the back cover of the book because it says that the book starts off with this sentence, "My name was Salmon, like the fish, first name, Susie. I was fourteen when I was murdered on December 6, 1973." That just caught my attention because of how she was murdered when she was 14 and how it seems like the book will be from the perspective of Susie's spirit, so a ghost. I want to read this book to find out more about Susie and how she was murdered and who murdered her.
