That’s it 
Here is my Friday Firsts: The EVERAFTER by Amy Huntley (ISBN: 978-0-06-177679-3) 248 pages.
I’m dead.
It’s short. It’s to the point. It gets me wanting to read more. So we know the character is dead – so what is going to happen? What is their purpose in this story that is to unfold?
Synopsis: (Taken from Amazon.com)
Madison Stanton doesn’t know where she is or how she got there. But she does know this—she is dead. And alone, in a vast, dark space. The only company she has in this place are luminescent objects that turn out to be all the things Maddy lost while she was alive. And soon she discovers that with these artifacts, she can reexperience—and sometimes even change—moments from her life.
Her first kiss.
A trip to Disney World.
Her sister’s wedding.
A disastrous sleepover.
In reliving these moments, Maddy learns illuminating and sometimes frightening truths about her life—and death.
This is a haunting and ultimately hopeful novel about the beauty of even the most insignificant moments—and the strength of true love even beyond death.

Very intriguing. There are many moments or events in life worth re-arranging. This is a great meme. Even though I’m a patient reader, I love it when the author really zings it at the beginning.
(Also, I’ve never been to Branson, MO, but it has been on my to-do list for a while.)
Thanks for stopping by!
