An interesting concept for a book to explore both AI and life beyond death and how these could possibly or impossibly interact. A good book to read if you're in the mood for thinking about life in general and what you would do when faced with the situation Nami found herself in at the very beginning of the book. 

While this book held promise I feel it didn't quite deliver on the execution side of things. Sometimes Nami's decisions or reasons felt a little flat and two dimmensional, but I appreciate that she stuck to her own set of morals and values throughout the book. The ending caught me off guard with enough plot twists to keep me busy for a week and I am looking forward to reading the sequel.

This book killed me. Appropriate since it's set in the afterlife! This book is imperfect (though I wonder if some imperfections would disappear upon a re-read) but I honestly don't care because I loved it. An interesting concept from the start, and I enjoyed every second of reading it. Most books have a slump at some point part way through, but this book didn't. I would give it 4.5/5 but rounded up so all my reviews are round numbers
