Sometimes it is just one line that makes you to read a book..
" in order to move on, you must understand
why you felt what you did, and why you no longer need to feel it."
The story of a man - Eddie - who dies in a tragic accident in an amusement park after leading a seemingly meaningless life. In the afterlife he'll meet five people who will help him understand the meaning of his life.
This turned out to be an entertaining book, easy to read and it's actually deeper than what I expected - Keeping in mind that my expectations were very low - That being said, I think the author tends to be a little sentimental in the way the story develops and the characters are not as well developed as I would have liked.
Overall this book doesn't say anything new but it provides a good start point to reflect on the inevitable truth of death and the way we walk towards it.

La historia de un hombre - Eddie - que muere en un trágico accidente en un parque de diversiones después de llevar una vida aparentemente sin sentido. En la otra vida se reunirá cinco personas que le ayudarán a comprender el significado de su vida.
Este resultó ser un libro entretenido, fácil de leer y en realidad es más profunda de lo que esperaba - Teniendo en cuenta que mis expectativas eran muy bajas - Dicho esto, creo que el autor tiende a ser un poco sentimental en la forma en que desarrolla la historia y los personajes no están tan desarrollados como me hubiera gustado.
En general, el libro no dice nada nuevo, pero es un buen punto de partida para reflexionar sobre la inevitable verdad de la muerte y nuestra forma de caminar hacia ella.
