Lowdown: This is a fiction-based book, which describes the experiences of three very different teenagers after they die, according to the Bible. The first is Daniel a non-Christian, who dies in a car accident and is suddenly standing before God completely unprepared. The second character is a luke-warm Christian named Becky, whose poor actions as a Christian in life are measured up after death. The last is Emma, a girl who put her faith in Christ and could not wait to get to Heaven.

Good points: It's specifically aimed at teenagers, so no big words or boring endless chapters of jargon. The Christian themes/beliefs are highlighted in bold for easy reference, and there are plenty of Biblical quotes to back up most of what the author is trying to get across, about the 'unknown' mysteries of life after death. A must read for Christians and atheists alike.

Bad points: It's a challenge to read, as we all fit into the shoes of one of the three characters. Be sure that your life will be affected!
