Eddie is an old man who have lived and worked at the same place for the last past decades at an old, but still working amusement park – then one day he dies. Doesn’t sound like much of an exiting story? Surprise! What if I told you that it starts with the 50 last minutes before he dies, and that’s just chapter one… I see now you curious.

 

Not only is this book refreshingly original in its story telling technique it also has several interesting stories to tell and a few points to make about life (wow). As you read on the book takes you both to past and present time and present time is both earth and heaven time, several side stories are told from the past and heaven isn't just as we usually depicts it. This books has a few things to say and I think one is justified with taking some of the things in it a bit metaphorical this way it can teach you a thing a to both morally and philosophically.

 

I was amused all the way trough this relative short book and had an inspired feeling after reading it, it's just one of those books that warms you inside without being zappy while teasing your brain, but without being pretentious.

 

This is a book that I might think is typical being read by a mid age audience tough I would recommend it heartily to any teens reading this review as well.
