9.21.2021 - Under the Whispering Door

Under the Whispering Door by T.J. Klune

Many thanks to NetGalley and Macmillan/Tor Books for gifting me a digital copy of this wonderful book by TJ Klune - 4.5 stars rounded up!

Wallace Price is not the most likable person and the fact that only a handful of people came to his funeral attests to that.  Wallace knows because he was there - along with a stranger, Mei, who tells Wallace that she is his reaper.  Mei takes him to a small village and to a cozy tea shop, operated by Hugo, a ferryman.  Hugo is there to help Wallace adjust to being dead and guide his transition to what lies beyond.  

I didn't read The House in the Cerulean Sea but it is now a must-read on my TBR because I loved this book!  While it deals with death, it also has humor, hope, faith along with a bucketful of life lessons that are good reminders to all of us.  I love quirky characters and the tea shop was full of them.  This book will make you laugh, cry and feel all the emotions in between!
