Query: Frustrated Bones

I read a few pages of The Lovely Bones online at www.amazon.com and thought I just had to read the rest, so I bought the hardcover. I wish I'd saved my money. To sum it up, the book was monotonous. I was amazed how Sebold could find so many words to say the same thing over and over. The characters were so dry, I actually got thirsty. The ending fizzled. I feel sorry for the dead if they are as tormented as Susie (the main character). This book left me feeling broke and frustrated.
