David read and liked Debbie's review of Sum: Forty Tales from the Afterlives:

"Perfect. There are 40 stories, no more than 3 pages long each, describing what possibly happens after you die. All were thought-provoking, many were funny, and a couple really were chilling. I love it! "
Nophoto-m-50x66
David read and liked Jonathan's review of Sum: Forty Tales from the Afterlives:

"Excellent. Imaginative, wry, funny, sad. I laughed, I cried, it had nothing to do with CATS. Yeah, nominally it's about the afterlife, but it is, of course, about how we choose to live. "
