Watch the movie trailer
Visit the official movie website at LovelyBones.com.
When we first meet 14-year-old Susie Salmon, she is already in heaven. This was before milk carton photos and public service announcements, she tells us; back in 1973, when Susie mysteriously disappeared, people still believed these things didn't happen.
In the sweet, untroubled voice of a precocious teenage girl, Susie relates the awful events of her death and her own adjustment to the strange new place she finds herself. It looks a lot like her school playground, with the good kind of swing sets.
With love, longing, and a growing understanding, Susie watches her family as they cope with their grief, her father embarks on a search for the killer, her sister undertakes a feat of amazing daring, her little brother builds a fort in her honor and begin the difficult process of healing.
In the hands of a brilliant novelist, the author narrates the THE LOVELY BONES through the eyes of her winning young heroine. This story of seemingly unbearable tragedy is transformed into a suspenseful and touching story about family, memory, love, heaven, and living.

Wow! The LovelyBones website was hauntingly pretty. Looking forward to the movie, but crazy enough, I havn't had a chance to read the book. Would love a chance to "read it through listening" :)
One thing I learned was that Susan Sarandon is in the movie...and I adored the pictures of heaven.

Looks like a good book, please enter me into this drawing.
I didn't even realize there was going to be a movie of this book, extra cool that Peter Jackson is directing.
Thanks for hosting this giveaway.

The movie is directed by Peter Jackson. A colleague of mine is currently reading the book, but my commute would be much safer with the audio version! We watched the movie trailer together - she's trying to finish reading before the movie comes out!
