This book was pretty popular for a while. I read it a year or so ago on my own, and then I had to read it my junior year in highschool.
It's about a girl who was brutally raped and murdered, yet manages to narrate the tale from her heaven. The book really focuses on the loss and healing that each individual character experiences (the mother, father, sister, and brother). The story shifts from present to future, slowly revealing aspects of the story that the reader (or characters) didn't initially know.
