"Under the Whispering Door" by TJ Klune

Admittedly at first I was slightly bored until about chapter nine… By the end I was tearing up out of sadness and then tearing up out of joy.

Overall not my favorite Klune story but was still a heartwarming story that explores the themes of life, death, and the afterlife.

The story revolves around a man named Wallace Price, who unexpectedly dies and finds himself stuck in a purgatory-like state where he must confront his past and learn to let go.

Parts of this one reminded me of “Into This River I drown” which is probably one of my favorite books ever.

I read this one well because it's a Klune book (duh), but also because it was the April pick for the 'Nothing But Reading Challenges' Goodreads group.
