Characters are written genuinely and lovingly. Tear jerking, realistic book until towards the end when it became some sort of campy ghost story. I felt that the method the author employed to give Susie some closure to her life on Earth was lazy and cheesy. I didn't care for any elements of the ending....but the rest of the book...written in a simple and page turning style...was wonderful.
