Goodbye for Now by Laurie Frankel

5.0

---

Just as funerals are for the living, RePose—a company whose technology helps recently bereaved people—is for the living who are trying to say goodbye; who are trying to let go. The problem is, people become addicted to the virtual relationship—to the deceased—the computer program offers…whether it’s the life-like video chat capability, email, or texting. Extremely well written, this thought-provoking book dishes up savory food for thought that’s richly seasoned with laughter and tears. If you’ve ever lost someone to death, might lose someone to death, or realize you’re going to die yourself one day, this book’s for you.
