~Review for Elsewhere:

'This book haunts me still, days after I've read it. Imagine being 15, and dead. Never having a 16th birthday. Just learning how to drive, and never having a license. Finding out that your aging will now be reversed, until you are again a baby, and again ready to go back to earth. And then imagine falling in love for the first time...........

This was a wonderful story. Definitely one worth revisiting.' -readsalot (Amazon)

I read this book last year, and the idea that it brings up still floats around in my head to this day. This book was amazing, and I thought that how two people could still find love in death astounded me. I really think that it is amazing. ^^ Hope you do too!

 

I thought that this book's concept was basically uber cool, but I didn't think it had much of a climax, and it just wasn't my favorite. Still good, though!

 

Yeah, that's true. But maybe it had to have a lack of a climax in order to get the point across...?

 

Um, except that no point reached ME from across the schism. I agree with Hanna, the concept was awesome, but the author didn't do what she could have with it. It died. A painful death.

 

Meh, I suppose you're right. ^^;

 

I didn't think it was that bad, just not that great....I dunno. it definitely doesn't "haunt me still" or anything like that
