ELSEWHERE: Gabrielle Zavin: Square Fish: 2007: Young Adult Fiction: 304 pagesThis was a very engaging story of a young girl killed in a car accident at the age of 14. It begins with her death when she awakens on a ship bound for Elsewhere. It turns out that after you die you go to Elsewhere and live a relatively normal afterlife. The main difference being that inhabitants of Elsewhere age backwards. Upon reaching the age of -0- they will return to earth to begin a new life. Lizzie has to figure out how to live in Elsewhere and deal with all the complex emotions and issues that every teenager faces. Regret, romance, family strife are all part of this story and make for a great read.
