Had to keep reminding myself that this book was fiction since it’s written as if its real
Good book. Hard to stop reading at nite. Always one more page, then end of chapter !!!

Really loved this book!! Much food for thought about life, death and living, really living! Wonderful characters…I loved them, they could be family, friends…in fact, have been reading my way through this series and have loved each one so far, they can stand alone, but love the way Ms McLean weaves these stories together!!
I could not put this book down … I HAD to know what happens next!
I had mixed feelings about this book, and because I started it, I continued reading. I found the second half better than the first and I am glad I continued it so I was able to give a better recommendation than I would have otherwise.
Slow start but as the story developed it became very interesting. By the end I had enjoyed the story.
A promising revelation of a life after this one
This book was not what I was expecting, however I very much enjoyed reading it.
I enjoyed this story and look forward to reading more from this author!
This is one of those books that really draws you in with interesting and complex characters and an unexpected ending.
This is one of the best books I’ve read in a long time. Beautifully written, it wrung emotion from every pore of my being. Hope, happiness, helplessness, wonder, awe, love, life, death and dying together make this a touching and engaging read.
I so loved this book – hated to see it end. At first I wasn’t sure but as I continued I felt like I was right there living it. Everything she did she did for a reason at that time even thou later she wished she could have changed some of them. Just like real life – we live it as we go through it. Some things we can fix and others we can not. …
