Under the Whispering Door by TJ Klune

5.0

After reading Under the Whispering Door, I can understand why author TJ Klune has become absolutely buzz-worthy. Under the Whispering Door is unlike any book I've read to date -- a postmortem slow-burn love story with redemption, personal growth, forgiveness, and such a deep exploration of life, death, and what it means to be human. Klune offers a beautiful plot with vibrant characters, witty dialogue, flawed humanity, and an existentialist view into life and what happens when it's over. Blurring the lines between the dead and the living, Wallace, Hugo, Mai, Nelson, and Apollo form their own little family under the strangest of circumstances, with newly-deceased Wallace learning what it means to really live, even when you're dead. Such a beautiful book that I can't wait telling everyone about!
