liv: Bookshelf labelled: Caution. Hungry bookworm (bookies)
Author: Alice Sebold

Details: (c) Alice Sebold 2002; Pub 2003 Picador; ISBN 0-330-48538-5

Verdict: The lovely bones is quite original and readable.

Reasons for reading it: It was discussed a lot in the general media when it was first published, and seemed like something I might like if I didn't hate it, so I was intrigued.

How it came into my hands: A charity shop in one of the English towns I've been book-hunting in over the past year or so.

Soundbite

Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
