My second favourite of the year
I just finished The Love of My Afterlife and I have to say, it's such a fun and lovely read! The story is full of charm, and the characters are so likeable. Each one brings something special to the table and by the end, you can't help but feel like they're your friends too.I loved how this book shows the importance of friendship and how we can find it when we don't expext. It's a nice reminder that having good friends around makes life better, even if you're dealing with the afterlife... The story is super relaxing and the humor is just right - light and funny without being over the top.Overall, The love of my afterlife is a feel-good book that leaves you with a smile. If you're looking for something heartwarming and fun, definitely give this one a try!

Cute and Funny!
I really enjoyed this book. It was easy to read, interesting, heartwarming and had some very funny moments that genuinely made me laugh out loud! If you are looking for a feel good book with a cute story and likeable characters then this will deliver. The main character reminded me of Iris from the film The Holiday crossed with Bridget Jones.

Light and funny
It's my first book by the author, but definitely not last. It's funny, sweet, sometimes bittersweet, not very believable at times - a perfect romcom. Leaves a perfect sweet aftertaste.

Interesting premise, hilarious writing! Fans of Christina Lauren and Julie Soto will love.
A recently deceased woman meets “the one” in the afterlife waiting room, scoring a second chance at life (and love!) if she can just find him on earth before her ten days are up… She might just need a little help from her grumpy neighbourI had a feeling I would enjoy this book but I wasn't expecting it to make me laugh as hard as I did. Delphie is such a fun and relatable FMC, who manages to get herself into the craziest and funniest situations. When she has to make up a poem on the spot to impress Cooper's family, I genuinely had tears in my eyes.The author has such a humorous style of writing that I adore and I think fans of Christina Lauren and Julie Soto will adore this book!A unique premie, and although somewhat predictable, I enjoyed every minute of it. Can't wait to see what else this author writes, she definitely on my radar now and could see her becoming an auto-buy author for me in the future!

Fabulous!
This was the first Kirsty Greenwood book that I read and so happy I did! Such a warm, light-hearted, feel-good read with relatable characters. I couldn’t put this book down! The twist at the end completely blew my mind! Since finishing this book I have purchased 3 more of Kirsty’s books and can’t wait to buy more.

Whimsical
I’d seen this book recommended on instagram and I love discovering a new author! I’ll be reading more by @kirsty_greenwoodI read this book in one day, sat by the beach. It was so easy to read and had my giggling out loud at some points. All the characters are great but Delphie is funny, honest and engaging.The story is whimsical, funny and heartwarming - another great holiday read. It’s a modern day feel good fairy tale ❤️

wow. loved it
I thought big sexy love was brilliant and this book is equal to that, laugh out loud, pulled at the heartstrings, all the emotions that you want in a book. The story is so realistic of the world today and dying to change your ways in life was drastic but totally necessary. Brilliantly written and couldn’t put it down, well done Kirsty Greenwood.

Totally different and lovely
3.75 rounded up.I really enjoyed this story. It was lighthearted, funny, and had plenty of laugh out loud moments. However, it dealt with heavy topics such as bullying and death. Self-imposed isolation and feelings of low self-worth.It was totally original and I loved the concept of actually living your life to the full, as you never know what is round the corner.This had so many tropes in it, but they were done well.Fake dating, enemies to lovers, love triangle, one bed, found family.It was just a lovely read.

Sigh… so good. Love, laughter, feelings, family!
This book was so good, I did not want it to end. From one strength to the next: the creative story, the strong development of each of the characters, the humor, the appreciation for life, the range of emotions, everything!! Please write more!!!!

Such a fun book filled with life, laughter, and love.
This was such a fun concept, to have died and find your soulmate in the afterlife just to have him returned to living. After making a deal, she has ten days to track down her soul mate to stay alive. What she finds along the way made me smile, laugh, roll my eyes, and I loved it!

Best rom-com I’ve read lately
This book is sooooo good! It made me laugh out loud, cry, and feel so much. It reads so easy and fun and was so hard to put down. I loved the way the chapters flowed and how vivid you could imagine every sentence. I have not shut up about this book since I started reading it. I highly recommend it! If you are a fan of Rom-com that takes you on a journey, has twists and turns and makes you feel something so deeply, this book is for you.

Rom-Com Lovers MUST Read!!
The premise is ridiculous. The story is bananas and it is the most fun I’ve had reading in a long time!! Tropes galore. Loveable quirky characters and a flawed heroine who finally finds her place in the world. Add to it a grumpy hero who obviously her HEA from the start but the journey to get there is a lot of fun!! Looking for a fun and crazy light read to laugh out loud to…this is the book for you!

4.5 Stars - The Love of My Afterlife
4.5 starsI loved this! The story has topics of grief, bullying, loneliness, and death while somehow still remaining light-hearted. It was a great summer read.All the characters were great: Delphie, Cooper, Merritt, and all the side characters along the way. This has found family, a second chance at life, love, and finding yourself. If you love a character journey, this is for you.The audiobook was great.
