Om denne e-bog
A teen is about to take the trip of her afterlife when she finds herself in purgatory with the task of helping five thousands souls move on to heaven before she can move on herself.
“A cheeky take on the afterlife brimming with sass, angst, and heart.”—Christine Riccio, New York Times bestselling author of Again, but Better
“Hilarious, sharp, and smart, with a gooey warmth hiding inside.”—Emma Straub, New York Times bestselling author of The Vacationers
Beatrice Fox deserves to go straight to hell.
At least, that’s what she believes. Her last day on Earth, she ruined the life of the person she loves most—her little sister, Emmy. So when Bea awakens from a fatal car accident to find herself on an airplane headed who knows where, she’s confused, to say the least.
Once on the ground, Bea receives some truly harrowing news: she’s in purgatory. If she ever wants to catch a flight to heaven, she’ll have to help five thousand souls figure out what’s keeping them from moving on.
But one of Bea’s first assignments is Caleb, the boy who caused her accident and the last person Bea would ever want to send to the pearly gates. And as much as Bea would love to see Caleb suffer for dooming her to a seemingly endless future of eating bad airport food and listening to other people’s problems, she can’t help but notice that he’s kind of cute, and sort of sweet, and that maybe, despite her best efforts, she’s totally falling for him.
From author Gabby Noone comes a darkly contemplative and heartfelt twist on the afterlife about finding second chances, first loves, and new friendships in the most unlikely places.
