This book is about a young girl named Susie Salmon. She has a mother and father, an older sister, and brother. Susie is on her way home from junior high when her weird neighbor asks her to come see this thing he build. It ends up being a hole in the ground but he said it should be a place where all of the kids in the neighborhood can play it. She starts to feel a little weird so she asks to leave. But he won't let her he ends up rapeing Susie and killing her.
Once she gets to heaven she can whatch what is happening on earth. She sees her parents start to get worried when she hasn't been home. And she can see Mr. Harvey, the man who killed her. She whatches the police come to her house and search for her and there is nothing she can do about it. She even whatches Mr. Harvey dragg out her body parts. Susie starts to worry about her sister the most because she thinks that she will do something rash.
The beging of this book was really exciting and scary, then it started to get boring. It's frustrating that the man that murdered her is in her neighborhood so close to her brothers and sisters. And the heaven that she is in is really strange.
