...need ties because everything else they get to wear is as exciting as cream cheese. But this year famous women are wearing ties because they're "strong, distinctive and sexy," in the words of one fashion marketer--and because other famous women are wearing them. The accessory has come a long way from Diane Keaton's tomboy outfit in Woody Allen's 1977 film, Annie Hall.

It's the paradise children pray for, full of soccer fields and friendly dogs. "Our heaven had an ice cream shop, where, when you asked for peppermint stick ice cream, no one ever said, 'It's seasonal.'"

...even ice cream gets boring after a while, so Susie turns her attention back to earth. She watches as the shock waves of her death spread slow-motion havoc among her family and friends--her brave but vulnerable dad, her precocious younger sister, her bewildered classmates, the boy she had a crush on. She watches dispassionately as her killer--the fastidious, emotionally damaged Mr. Harvey--carefully disperses her body parts (the hunt for Mr. Harvey gives the book a fierce narrative energy).
