Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin

 

Elsewhere is one of my favorite books. I revisited it again and loved it just as much. Liz Hall is only 15 years old when she dies. She finds herself on a ship headed to Elsewhere. She soon learns that she is dead and when she arrived in Elsewhere she is greeted by her grandmother who had passed on.

Liz learns that Elsewhere is a place that people age backwards from the day they die until they become a baby and return to earth. Liz initially struggles as she finds her own way but once she does she blossoms.

Elsewhere is a creative and unique rendition of afterlife. I can easily read this book over and over.
