O.R. Post #5

Suzie still watches as her family reunites. Her mother decides to stay and Buckley learns to accept it. No w that she knows all is well with her family, she starts to watch her friends Ruth and Ray more often, especially since Ray was her first and last kiss. She was watching so intently that she fell, literally, right from Heaven. At first everyone was confused. Suzie sat up and realized that she was inside of Ruth and Ruth was on her way to heaven for a short period of time. This was a gift to Suzie. She saw Ray and fell all over again. She thought he might not believe her but, he too noticed something was different about "Ruth". She finally told Ray once they were at an abandoned bike shop. He wanted to know everything and was so happy that his one love was back for a night...

Suzie left Ruth's body later that night. After going back to heaven for the second time, she realized that she didn't need to watch her family and friends so close, they all knew that she was with them, always. Now she was able to do the things she wanted in heaven and still, because she couldn't help it, watch over her family. They too would think of her, but she now stayed in their memories. Suzie sees that Mr. Harvey, on yet another mission to kill a young teen, gets hit by an icicle, what suzie always thought to be the perfect murder weapon.

I thought this was a really good book. It kept me reading and always kept my minds racing. It was also kind of different because hte perspectives would change from suzie, to her dad, to her friend ruth. It was interesting to see waht was racing through eveyones minds. Sometimes it seemed a little far fetched, like Suzie "falling out of heaven", but metaphorically, but i still injoyed it.
