1. Theme: Starting Over

The Love of my Afterlife by Kirsty Greenwood 
I could barely put this book down, it's so good. Funny, sad, encouraging. This book has it all. 
Merrit is an Afterlife coach with some scary ambitious traits. Delphie lands in her laundrette fresh from choking, unable to quite accept that this is her lot, she pleads to be sent back. She had 10 days to make it happen with a task that needs to be met. She signs the contract in the same way Ariel signs over her voice in The Little Mermaid. 
She'd been a recluse, these 10 days show her what life could or maybe should have been. 
From arrogant Cooper, Mr Yoon, Frida, Amy, Malcolm, Uncle Lester, her work colleagues at pharmacy to name but a few, she really has no choice but to engage and experience life. Will she make it in time, will her newly found zest for life and community spirit help her meet the requirements? It's such an awesome fun read on the way to finding out. Recommended as one of the funny and awesome romance comedies of 2024. It also gives off The Good Place Vibes in parts.
