I was given this book by the author for a honest review.


This is an amazing story based on an actual event that happened to the author, based on her version of what happens when you die. I really enjoyed the story Charley’s adventures in Avalon as she comes to grips with her daughter’s passing, and her moving on without Jenny. At times I was sad, other times I shouted with joy, and other times I was a bit confused. This whole book makes you think and wonder what really does happen when you die?

This story had the feel of Alice In Wonderland and the Phantom TollBooth books I adored when I was younger. You really feel as if you have gone on a long journey with the characters and have learned lessons right along with them. Take time to read this book, and I am sure you will not be disappointed.
