death

Good read for a plane trip (which is where I read it). The book was better than the movie (as are most books). The afterward was my favorite part. ( )

Well written and thought full, this is a story of two brothers, one younger boy who was suddenly killed because of a car accident at the hands of his older brother. As the younger child was dying, Charlie made a promise that the would meet to play softball every night at dusk.

Accustomed to being among the dead, Charlie works at a cemetary for many years, and has experience with those who die but hang on to life.

When Charlie falls in love, he is torn about the inability to meet his brother every night.

A thoughtful book, I can recommend. ( )

Wonderful story about the living and the afterlife. I look forward to seeing the movie... ( )
