Recommendation: This book would be good for all those dreamers out there. Personally i like realistic books. For people who like books that are made up this is definately the book for you. It's for people with wide imaginations. Also i would reccomend this to people over 16. People with open minds will truly enjoy this.

Summary: This book is pretty much about this girl Susie. Susie gets murdered and her family is extremly devistated. They have a lot of hope they don't won't to let go and say Susie is gone. She is in her after life. It's like real life but she's dead. In the book she has to overcome a fear that she has there is a box that she cannot comfront. Later on in the book we come to find out that the box are the bones of susie. She had to overcome her fear in order for after life and real life to meet again. She had to overcome the fear of her murderer. In her after life she sees her loved ones. The family kept holding on they new Susie wasn't gone..

Explanation of Rating: I rated this book at two. I didn't hate the book. This book was well written and it did keep my attention. The only reason why i rated so low is because this book isn't a book i would reccomend all my friends to read. It is not is my most interest. Although it was a well written book. I did enjoy it to a certain degree.

Favorite passage: "Nothing is ever certain" (Pg.21)

I like this because it shows Susie isn't gone forever... She is living in an afterlife and all hope shouldn't be wasted.
