'The Lovely Bones'

This morning while the kids were in school, me and my friend C slipped away to watch the new movie, "The Lovely Bones." When I met C last fall (she has a boy in L's class and a girl in B's class) she was reading the novel by Alice Sebold and when I heard the movie was coming out, I knew I had to read it, too. I bought the book a while ago and it had been sitting on my shelf for months. I finished it over Christmas break and we decided we'd go see the movie together.

We both agreed we liked the book better than the movie, and decided the producers left out a few critical points. And we both thought it was too long - over two hours.
