Elsewhere

A TIME MAGAZINE BEST YA BOOK OF ALL TIME

Beloved by generations of readers, Elsewhere is an original, moving novel about love, loss, and the meaning of it all from the New York Times-bestselling author of Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow and The Storied Life of A. J. Fikry.

Is it possible to grow up while getting younger?

Welcome to Elsewhere. The beaches are marvelous. It's quiet and peaceful. You can't get sick, and you'll never turn even a day older . . .

This is where fifteen-year-old Liz Hall ends up, after she has died. It is a place so like Earth yet completely different. Here, Liz will age backward from the day of her death until she becomes a baby and returns to Earth.

But Liz wants to turn sixteen, not fourteen again. She wants to get her driver's license. She wants to graduate from high school and go to college. Now that she's dead, though, Liz is forced to live a life she doesn't want with a grandmother she has never met before. And it isn't going well. How can Liz let go of the only life she has ever known and embrace a new one? Is it possible that a life lived in
reverse is no different from a life lived forward?

A book that transcends genre and category, Elsewhere is a modern YA classic.

It’s fine.

I read this book in middle school and I absolutely loved it, I still feel very nostalgic about it. Rereading it as an adult was 100% a mistake. The entire time I was reading all I could think about was how all the characters seemed to speak with the same voice, very few of the characters were really fleshed out (they all seem to be solely motivated by helping Liz and have almost no personality outside of that), and the whole...

A nice perspective on the afterlife.

Elsewhere tells of a place that is not quite heaven, but where the deceased can continue their life, finding more love and friendship just as they did on Earth. This book was very touching and reminds you that it is the quality of life, and not the quantity that stays with you.
