reading response #5

 I am currently reading the book The Lovely Bones  by Alice Sebold. In the book a girl named Susie gets raped and killed. Everyone takes her death really badly. People start getting problems and everything just goes down hill. Her mother leaves while her grandma moves in. Even her school friends life changes drastically.Even though Susie is dead, she is still apart of their lives.
  One thing that i noticed is that Susie  is still very important in their lives. From heaven she watches down on them all the time. She takes everything in on what their doing. She takes note on what happens. She also has the same feeling that she would on earth as she feels on heaven. I don't feel as if she has wisen up.
   But Susie is also there physically. She goes and watches her family. Her brother tells his dad that she is in the room with him, watching him. She goes down and watches them. I think that she doesn't miss them more than they miss her. I feel like shes more mellow. I also feel like she wants to visit everyone she loved or that were important to let them know that they were important.
   This proves how close to her loved ones lives she is. All the people that she visits, don't really have a problem with it. They only loved her so much. I think even though shes not alive, shes there, with them.
