More Than This
Sentence: I sentence Jess Rothenberg to as much pizza as she wants without getting fat.Review: I should first mention that this is not really my type of book. There was not enough action, not enough world-is-doomed and just not enough life and the fight for survival. But then, our main character is dead. I don't mean almost dead, I mean dead dead. There is no chance of revival; no chance of getting her boyfriend back; and most definitely no chance of getting any semblance of her old life back to its previous "perfection".
And that's how she describes it: perfection.
Brie seems a little too special to me. Even in death, she seems able to bend the rules more than usual; ruining other people's lives because of it.
I actually enjoyed this book because of its humour (including all those cheese jokes), and because it sort of reminds me of my scatter-minded thinking. The characters did not feel as real as I would have liked and were predictable (including her heart-breaker's reasoning behind not loving her).
In fact, at times, Brie is just downright evil, even though some of her vindictive nature kinda agrees with me (mwahahaha).
This is definitely a good (light) read for teens, with romance and some strange perspectives on life after death.
But alas, I found I didn't really care, because somehow everything ended up being hunky-dory again! It was some sort of time-travelling, soul-exchanging, mind-boggling, heaven-bungee-jumping shit going on and I decided to just go with it.
