Discussion started by: | Discussion > *Recently Read & Recommended*Ok....I thought that the Club could do with a refresher post, so here goes: What have you recently read, enjoyed and therefore can recommend. I have recently completed ´Alice Sebolds - The Lovely Bones´.....the story of a 14 year old girl who was tragically raped and murdered by a neighbour and who himself was never brought to Justice for this crime and many other s before hand. I wanted to watch the film when it was released as it looked really good but was recommended by a friend to read the book FIRST......this I did, and I am glad that I did, because it helped me greatly understand the story as it unfolded throughout the film and although the film was slightly edited from the actual book (as normal) it still remained a very moving and touching motion picture and make´s for a must see too. Based on a true story....I thoroughly recommend both the novel and the film too to anybody!.
