Lucky

This is by far the best of the other Alice’s 2 books. I really can feel her emotions in this book. Yes, the rape details is so grossed, so nerve wrecking and made me cried a lot. But Alice also wrote with compassionate too.

Actually I hardly cry because of books, but Lucky made me shed tears here and there. I admire Alice’s strength through all her hardships, I admire her ability to get out there and say “I’m still a virgin after all because my chastity was taken from me by force…more This is by far the best of the other Alice’s 2 books.

Alice really taught her readers a lot from this book. She taught us that it’s ok to not be perfect after an accident happened to you. The most important thing is you can finally wake up from your sadness and start all over again.

The Lovely Bones

I believe in the so called afterlife, I believe in heavens waiting for me InsyaAllah.

Reading Alice’s book made me thinking a lot of what will happen to people that I will leave behind one day. If my time comes, will my family, my friends and people I close with remember me?

The lovely bones is a powerful book, maybe in a glance the story looks cliche’: a girl murdered..a shattered family..a heaven and earth description. But no, this book gave me a lot to think about, my own life especially. As I think Alice really knew how to describe one event powerfully and so strongly motivated. It’s a very sad book indeed, as I can’t stop crying reading Suzie’s story.

In spite of all the above, I can’t help feeling sick and nausea when Alice described the part when Suzie got raped in a very clear and detail way. For that, I think the book’s cover need to have some kind of warning like “PG (Parental Guide)”
