As humans I think the afterlife is something we are naturally curious about, so I was interested in this topic and liked where it was going. I just wanted more. I wanted a little more information in the transitions. In a short read I felt the author was able to give just enough background on the characters based on little clues, like what they were doing when they died, who they were with, etc. I could see this all playing out in my mind as I read and I think it would be a great story to elaborate on. Enjoyable short story overall.

out of 5 stars, i give this short story 4! it was interesting and uplifting, i could see the potential of it being a full blown story, i think ill be keeping an eye out for more by this author. Thank you for letting me read this!

**I received a complimentary copy of this book through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.**

This was an intriguing little short story. The p.o.v.s were neatly woven together, and the imagery was vivid. I can't wait to read more from Jack Chaucer!

Thank you for netgalley, the publishers, and the author for the ARC I read.

This being a short story and all, you really just dive right in to the story. So it can be a little like a puzzle, reading it and figuring out what is going on and what the author is trying to do. It was beautifully written and the ideas of the afterlife were really interesting to explore. An enjoyable read that makes me curious about this author’s longer works.
