the ten best days of my life

By Adena Halpern

ISBN: 978-073-362285-4

Alex Dorenfield is a 29-year-old personal shopper. She lives in LA and is worried that what she is doing with her life is slightly pointless. Or at least she did ... until she was killed by a Mini Cooper while walking her dog, Peaches, at four in the morning.

When Alex gets to heaven she finds herself on the seventh plane ...a place with no cellulite, walk-in closets, calorie-free ice-cream sundaes and a straight, single, hunky next-door neighbour. Sure, she misses her parents and is sad that she died so young but things aren't too bad.

In fact, she gets to see her grandparents again and catch up with the other people she loves who have died. Just when Alex thinks things are going to be fine, she finds out she has to earn her right to stay in this heaven ... and that means finding ways to right some wrongs she left behind.

WHAT WE THOUGHT

recommended

When reading The Ten Best Days of My Life, it feels like you are talking to a close friend and I love Adena Halpern’s casual writing style. The main character of the book, Alex and her dog Peaches die late one night and find themselves in heaven.

Heaven is not as she expected, and she has to write an essay on the 10 best days of her life so she can keep her cellulite free body and never ending selection of designer clothes.

While writing about her life, Alex finds out a lot about herself, and it’s a fun journey to read about. This book is witty, with a huge fashion element that you will love…and heaven sounds like, well…heaven.

A refreshing chic novel, that isn’t all about predictable romance, it’s about good friends, family and clothes…and living your life to the fullest.

I would recommend this book to readers, and the fabulous author Adena Halpern has been called 'the real-life Carrie Bradshaw.’
