On the other hand, i believe that heaven is not at all as it is described in this book because God wouldn't allow you to suffer. I say this because Susie is still able to see her family and murderer, yet she is not able to speak to them or tell them what really happened, i believe this is suffering. I think that once you die, its over. You are not able to see you're family or do anything on Earth anymore. In fact, I believe that when people say that they have seem ghosts or "Spirits" it is because a demon has taken the physical image of the dead person to haunt people and be an evil disturbance on Earth.

hey Ecleen!!
Well since I;m reading the same novel as you are, I understand fully what you mean. Though you think it's suffering that Susie can't talk to her family members, I think she doesn't want it very much, maybe that's why she isn't able to communicate with them by words. Since in her heaven, if you want something really badly, you'll get it. I think she's afraid she'll scare them off, in my opinion.
So, when she gets to really want to talk to them...it will happen.
You'll understand when you read the entire book =]
oh here's a quote I think of when I hear heaven, my best friend told me it.
"Everyone wants to go to heaven but no one wants to die..."

I am also reading this book, and from your blog, I realized, that I was totally thinking of the same thing!! The heaven described in the book, also makes me visualize how heaven really is, but the heaven in the book is fictional, because as you said, Susie is still suffering. Excellent job on your blog :)
I am madd cool? Says who? O yea my NAme does =D. Anyways yea i get what your saying that its up to what you want in your afterlife that determines your heaven. Like if i like Ms. Faughey's class then i would be in her class in heaven =D. But lets say i do bad things in life then i would go to hell which would be something that i dread such as going to CyberLand with my friends . . . *tear*
