The Everafter

Madison Stanton doesn't know where she is or how she got there. But she does know this--she is dead. And alone, in a vast, dark space. The only company she has in this place are luminescent objects that turn out to be all the things Maddy lost while she was alive. And soon she discovers that with these artifacts, she can re-experience--and sometimes even change--moments from her life.

Her first kiss.

A trip to Disney World.

Her sister's wedding.

A disastrous sleepover.

In reliving these moments, Maddy learns illuminating and sometimes frightening truths about her life--and death.


Amy Huntley's book grabs you with the first line, "I'm dead" and does not let you go. It is unique and had me turning the pages as she tries to find out how she died and what the lost objects have to do with her life.  I look forward to more from Amy.

This sounds like a good one. The idea that we could have the opportunity to go back and change things in our life is one that intrigues a lot of people, I think.

I think I have this book! You pick some really good books. I'm coming back when time permits (hopefully soon) to see what I missed.
