You probably know her novel but have you ever read her memoir?
Alice Sebold, the much acclaimed author of an international bestseller and a book club favorite: Lovely Bones, is also celebrating her birthday on September 6th. She is turning 49. Millions have read her famous novel and millions have gone to see the movie adaptation of this story, but have you tried her memoir Lucky? This is an incredible story that will leave you marked for a long time. “When I was raped I lost my virginity and almost lost my life. I also discarded certain assumptions I had held about how the world worked and about how safe I was.” ― Alice Sebold, Lucky

A searingly honest account of a life changing event in the author's life and the path her life took following the event. It does not always make for easy reading and at times I wanted to stop as I found it so difficult but to do so seemed disrespectful to what Alice Sebold has been through.
