By: Alice Sebold
I chose to read this book because of all the high recommendations for it. The book also had interesting topics like death, heaven, and mystery. Also when I read the review the trap was snapped. I have high expectations for this book. I hope by the end I'm raving to everyone about how good it was just like CANDY. I expect it to be an extremely good read.I also looked up the author- Alice Sebold. He is an American Writer and is 44 years old. When she was 18 years old and a freshman at Syracuse, she was attacked, beaten and brutally raped in the tunnel to an amphitheatre.[2] After some months at home Sebold returned to Syracuse to finish her bachelor’s degree and study writing. Months later, while walking down a street near the Syracuse campus, she recognized her rapist and secured his arrest and conviction."This book is 324 pages. I want to read for 4 weeks. 100 pages for the first week and 24 for the fourth.

AAAHH! i <3 this book. nice choice. =] i don't really know what i should say in this comment, but like, i thought this book was REALLY good, did you? the history of the writer that you found it is very interesting. i didn't know that. so she wrote a book she can relate to. isn't that one thing we talk about in class? that does the author's past reflect on their writing, or something? oh well, it's really good! =] <3
