Don't look for this book to be a guide through bereavement, because it isn't that. This novel is more of a place to start conversations with your living spouses about what they would do if you should die. Love after death, dating after death, and living again after death are all topics to begin discussions. Our book club talks about the men in our lives often. This book is perfect for us to get a take on how each of our men think. I liked the main character, but at times wanted to shake him and tell him to think with his head. Men are such boys!
