Sweet, poignant novel about how we really get that reel we see when our lives flash before our eyes. Through three very different characters, we see the inner workings of a post-life photo shop where the deceased are given a chance to reflect on their lives before moving on to the next plane. Does it feel a little corny? Yes. But it still hits you right in the chest at moments and has some surprises up its sleeve.
