This is a humorous take on a travel guide. It is all places in which you coud go to visit after you have died. It takes beliefs from different cultures and religions, along with what authors have created throught their art forms, and discusses what it would be like to visit. The book is divided into sections of Mythology, Religion, Books, Movies, Television, Music and Theater, and Miscellaneous. Each section has multiple places to visit that would fall under that category. For each location is a description of what it looks like and things/people that you may encounter while there.

This book was interesting, but a slow read. It's not "laugh out loud" humor, it's just humorous in concept. A lot of the places I haven't heard of as I haven't seen the movie, read the book, or learned about a particular culture. So, this book can be enjoyable for two types of people: those who have a broad knowledge of history and/or those who are interested in learning more.

While I liked this book, I didn't love it. It's very much geared toward those who appreciate dry humor.

The array of afterlives covered by this handy tome are a delightfully rich assortment taken from a wide selection of different faiths, books, films, TV shows, plays, and songs. So no matter how much you may think that you know already, and no matter how much media you’ve consumed in general, you’re still bound to be introduced to several new post-life settings the likes of which you’ve never heard of before. And each afterlife’s individual section hits that sweet spot of informative and clearly well-researched without overstaying its welcome, providing both a good deal to learn but (usually) not so much so that it might spoil a reader’s appetite to learn even more on their own. Plus, Ken Jennings’ writing runs thick with wit, and leaves plenty of opportunity for toothy smiles and hearty chuckles.

To say the least, this is not a title to be overlooked. "100 Places to See After You Die" hits that fine balance of educational and just plain fun dead on (pun partially intended). Also who knows - if there is an afterlife that happens to be like any of the many covered in here, you might end up unintentionally doing some helpful prep work!
