The Love of My Afterlife by Kirsty Greenwood
3.75
I liked this a lot. Enjoyable and fun. I kind of wish there was a "clean" version (minus the profanity x78 and sex) and I'd recommend it to my mom and sister ;) The story was cute, a bit of a GoodPlace vib for a bit (waking up in the Afterlife). In the end, it was a bit convoluted and coincidental, but I found myself smiling as I was listening to the audiobook, and will remember it fondly.
I'm not big on reading challenges, but per the Jan-April Goodreads Community Favorites challenge that popped up, I figured I'd try to complete all six. This was my selection for the "Sweet and Spicy" ... I'd already read several, but was glad for the nudge to get to this one.
It had the "lonely individual suddenly connects and makes a variety of friends" trope ... and totally "ahh" as Delphie cared for her neighbor Mr. Yoon. Loved the introduction of the VOCA (voice output communication aid) which reminded me of the similar device in "Out Of My Mind".
1st person/present tense
Words I note: Careen, rifling, snuck
LVCC Library borrow, easily available there, but less available at other libraries
