Liz is dead. But she doesn't want to admit it. She's on her way to Elsewhere, the place where dead people live and get younger. They get younger until they are babies and then are sent back down to Earth. What an interesting concept! I must give Gabrielle Zevin some credit for creating a fascinating afterlife. Liz gets addicted to the observation decks, where she can watch her family and friends. And she becomes great friends with the lead singer of her favorite band who died of drug use. She gets to live with her grandmother and finds out that she can speak canine. She has a love interest, Owen, and things get tricky when his wife dies and joins him in Elsewhere. And, Liz has a big decision to make. Because she was a teenager when she died, she can opt to return to Earth at the end of one year or staying in Elsewhere until her age reverses. Which will she decide?
