Short and sweet. Missed Marian's writing.

This is part of a easy adult learn to read series. It was a great short story about a 30 something who dies, but doesn't realise it. It makes some great points about modern life and Lizzie's death even inspires her friend to start living, because life is not dress rehearsal. Before reading it, I had forgotten how many adults are illiterate, and one of the main stumbling blocks are engaging materials. It's the same for children. It's a great project, and something I didn't know was out there until I got the ordered book from the library.

Not as nuanced as her other work, but a good quick read. I love the idea of this Irish series.

It's short, so it's a very quick read (I read the whole thing on an hour-long flight, so it's actually more of a novella than a novel), but it's still very cute and worth the hour it will take to spend with it. It was written for the "Open Door" series, which is a program to help improve reading skills.

Sometimes short, sweet, and to the point is just right. This mini novel was just that, and I thought it was perfect.

Me recordo a una de las series que tanto me gustaba cuando la pasaban por la tv "Dead Like Me" .

Very quick easy read - under 100 pages. Good story but a little too short.

I read this book a while ago and liked it for what it was but it is only really a short story. I read it in about an hour or two.

Even though the story starts with a death it is a feel-good type of story. Keyes has managed to take a somber topic and create a very upbeat message.

Short story re the concept of a spiritual life and being able to spend some time with those you've left behind. I hope I can attend my own funeral! Wouldn't that be fun.
I agree with most of the other reviewers that Lizzie recognises (some of) her failings and regrets that she didn't have the chance to change her life before it was cut short. The fact that her friend decides to change her life for the better leaves the reader with a positive ending.
The story could act as a scaffolding for a novel.

A pretty basic story, but it was cute and sweet.

Ni siquiera puede considerarse novela. Relato (y corto) más bien. 180 páginas que se quedan en 90 sin la parte en inglés, pero con una letra y un interlineado descaradamente grandes. La historia tampoco es que me haya dicho mucho, aunque resulta más o menos entretenida.
