The Lovely Bones book review

The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold
Published by Little, Brown & Company

I just finished reading this very upsetting story. The narrator of the book is a young dead teenager. She describes how her death affects the people who are left behind. She is in her version of heaven watching her family, her killer, the neighbours, the police and all the activities after her death. My stomache was in a knot the entire time I was reading, it was just so sad. How she died and how her family came apart is just wrenching to read. It is a very well paced novel and I read it quite quickly. I didn't care for the ending, took away from the way the story was unfolding. I hear they have made a movie of this novel. The visual representation of "The Lovely Bones" if they are at all true to the words of this novel will be unwatchable. I can't say I liked reading this book, it hurt.

Wanted!

This link is to a youtube video by Marta Walsh from TalkingMakeup.com discussing Chris and Tell lipstick for Lancome.



The so elusive Pout-a-Porter Lancome Chris and Tell lipstick on a lucky model. Lancome are launching the colour next year, it will be available Spring 2010! Isn't it a great shade? Doesn't it make you happy? Just imagine if you were able to find a tube and wear it? Nothing like a new lipstick to make your day shine brighter :)

Thank you Lancome ♥






I won a lovely Lancome prize from Kerry Diamond on The Lancome Blog. Have you visited there? http://www.thelancomeblog.com/ It is a great place to get new ideas on how to apply your makeup. I swoon often at the wonderful pallets of colours that they show. The new Winter makeup line is stunning! Have you seen the pictures of Kate Winslet? They are going to sell so much Tresor and that awesome red lipstick :D
