Review

This novel tells the story of a teenage girl, who after being raped and murdered, observes her family and friends from heaven and watches as they struggle to acknowledge then accept her death. I don't usually enjoy a book written in the first person but it is written with sensitivity and candour about death and immortality in a very non-judgemental way. As nurses we are required to reflect in practice and on practice, and similarly the main character Susie shows concerns about a penguin in her Snow globe, to which her Dad replies "Don't worry Susie, he has a nice life. He's trapped in a perfect world."
