"The Lovely Bones"
For my virtual school class Free Choice Blog Assessment 4.08 I decided to read The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold .This books organizational pattern is in chronological order from the beginning to the end. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes mystery and sad stories with sum sort of hope.summay/ personal reaction
This books chaper 1 stared of with he main character (narator) Susie Salmon. Fom the beginning you can tell that she is a young 14 year old who is full of hope.In chapter 1 it introduces Susie like she is already in heaven. It talked about how she was murdered since December 16, 1973 by her neighbor, Mr. Harvey.Susie was going home after school in a snowy day so she had decided to take a shortcut on her way home but then she comes upon Mr. Harvey there in the dark in a cornfield.While reading this story I felt my heart beating fast.The organizaton pattern that I observed was order of importance and chronological orderThe details were so specific and clear that I put myself in Susie's position.I felt mad at Mr.Harvey.
Mr.Harvey started to have a conversation with her while she told him that shehad to go home he said to Susie that he wanted to show her a a really cool "hiding place". It was like a wooden undergroun hatch.Since shewas so innocent and has bever been really in a dangerous situation she simply went with Mr.Havey down to the "hiding place".She thought Hare was wierd but he dad had told her before ta he was "just character". Susie wanted to know everything about tha room including how he built it and how he learned to build it.Hrvey ad pressured Susie to stay for a while and have a coke.Then he started asking questions about her personl ife and things you shouldnt ask a 14 year old.H asked he if sh d a boyfiend and if she was a virgin.From tha moment that I read that I knw what was going to happen. :(
....Harvey raped Susie Salmon brutally.
