Extremely sad and graphic at times. Unforgettable.
Graphic: Child death, Rape, Murder, Blood, Kidnapping, and Death

This was an absolutely heartbreaking story that had me in tears more than once. It was inspired by the events that occurred in Lucky, and this story was actually what helped her get through that terrible ordeal. Well worth the read.

It is sometimes hard to follow in places but, on the whole, a lovely, highly emotive, and original story about a girl who is murdered and continues to watch over her loved ones, from heaven, as they come to terms with her death.

My review disappeared ? Wow, I am surprised somebody would delete it based on my thoughts.
I remember I didn't like it, hated it. It wasn't the writing it was the realistic horror, sadness, and darkness it left in my heart. To live through her eyes, her dead eyes was too much. I don't like a book that makes me feeling sad, and broken. I didn't like it, I wished i hadn't read it it still darkens my mood when I think about it.

I really, really, really liked this book until it fell apart at the end. I was very disappointed and think that the ending was a sell out or she didn't know where to go with the book. As a crime victim advocate the premise of the book was interesting and unusual. I would still recommend it for a read but you'll totally do an eye roll at the end.

I really enjoyed reading this book and I would recommend it to anyone who would like to slow down and gain some perspective.
Teacher/Parent Prepare for:
SA/Homicide description of a child. This is the premise. It is not told is overwhelmingly graphic detail, but it is a violent crime against a child.
Afterlife/Life after death themes
LGBTQ+ themes
Descriptions of other SA/Homicides in lesser detail
Consensual Sexual Activity of teenagers and young adults
