"This book has it all. Humor, heart, and a heroine I was desperately rooting for. Kirsty Greenwood has a new fan!”—Colleen Hoover, New York Times bestselling author

A recently deceased woman meets “the one” in the afterlife waiting room, scoring a second chance at life (and love!) if she can find him on earth before ten days are up…

If she wasn’t dead already, Delphie would be dying of embarrassment. Not only did she just die by choking on a microwaveable burger, but now she’s standing in her ‘shine like a star’ nightie in front of the hottest man she’s ever seen. And he’s smiling at her.

As they start to chat, everything else becomes background noise. That is until someone comes running out of a door, yelling something about a huge mistake, and sends the dreamy stranger back down to earth. And here Delphie was thinking her luck might be different in the afterlife.

When Delphie is offered a deal in which she can return to earth and reconnect with the mysterious man, she jumps at the opportunity to find her possible soulmate and a fresh start. But in a city of millions, Delphie is going to have to listen to her heart, learn to ask for help, and perhaps even see the magic in the life she’s leaving behind…

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Kirsty Greenwood’s The Love of My Afterlife is an utterly charming romcom that is as hilarious as it is poignant. Reading this book is like receiving a big hug from a dear friend.”—Carley Fortune, New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After

“Kirsty Greenwood’s The Love of my Afterlife takes a slice out of The Good Place to create a cheeky rom-com full of light and laughter.”—Elle

“Greenwood weaves themes of loneliness, grief and self-discovery into a romance filled with laugh-out-loud moments.”—USA Today

A chick lit book for women who don’t like chick lit.

I didn’t want to like this book.
I rolled my eyes when they picked it for book club this month. But when Delphi died within minutes of the opening by gagging in a burger, I knew I had met my soul mate. This book is much more than meets the eye. At times over the top and silly, I found myself grinning and laughing out loud. Other times, the profoundness of the lessons of living a life of purpose and grabbing happiness by the reins were so well written…
So I refuse to like this cheesy ass book. Like Delphi, I’ll just have to begrudgingly love it.

So beautiful!

This book was such a surprise. It was charming, funny and it put things into perspective. The point of life is to have a life… lived. so much to see, so much to do and so much to feel. This audiobook played out like a movie in my mind and I’m so glad i stumbled upon it!

Main characters growth
