1st Blog - Lovely Bones

This week we read up to chapter 4.
We discussed Susie's death. She was easily pulled in by Mr.harvey because she trusts him. To her, he is the last person that would ever harm her or even kill her. We discussed the value of trust. When you really trust someone, you see them as a good person and you respect them. Susie respected Mr. Harvey as a person and as a neighbour. The thought of her going into his basement was odd for her, but at the same time she didnt expect the worse in him. The last thing on her mind was to get murdered by her own well trusted neighbour.
Her family went through a tough time after hearing about their daughters death, knowing that the killer is still out there. Her killer being their neighbour, is an even worse thought.
We discussed how innocent Susie is, and how she didnt know any better. She was naive and believed that he wasnt harmful. Placing her trust straight into the palm of his hands. Leaving him to take advantage of that, and murdering Susie Salmon.
A few questions we discussed was whether Mr.Harvey was going to be caught by the police or not? If her parents will realise that hes not so innocent.
