What does Susie flashback into Ruth’s life? (The Lovely Bones)

Explanation:Structure and Effect on Story/text.1-6. The structure and effect on story is that Susie uses a lot of FLASHBACKS

In the very beginning of chapter 1 Susie recites her death made by Mr.. Harvey. She also talks about Ray (the guy she liked) and how his heart belongs to her.(pg.13 Sebold The Lovely Bones).

Chapter 2 Susie talks about when she first enters heaven and describes how it looks. Then she meets Holly who died the same day as Susie.. In chapter 2 she also talks about her family and detective Len Fenerman who works on Susie case. He is the one who bring Susie's parents a body part(Elbow)

Chapter 3. In this chapter it talks about Ruth. Ruth tells her mom about a dream she had and claims that "I was crossing through the faculty parking lot, and suddenly,down out of the soccer field,I saw a pale running ghost coming toward me.".(pg 37 Sebold The Lovely Bones).

Chapter 4. In this chapter it tells us about the police trying to find Susie's body, and it tells us about Mr. Harvey destroying all the evidence of Susie's body and it tells us about Mr. Harvey life goes on after that.

Chapter 5. "Part of me wished swift vengeance, wanted my father to turn into the man he could never have been-a man violet in rage"(pg. 58 Sebold The Lovely Bones). In this quote it just automatically just tells us that Susie wishes that her father just took a sledgehammer and just killed Mr.. Harvey before he got away.

Chapter 6. Susie talks about Ray and her crush on him and how she knew ray had a crush on her.

Then she flashes forward to present time where Ruth and ray start to hang out and talk about Susie before she was dead.
