"After Life is a masterful tale about a family coping with loss, showing the way grief affects us and people we don't even know in ways we don't see. Once I met Amber and her family, I didn't want to let them go." -Brigid Kemmerer, New York Times bestselling author of Carving Shadows into Stone
"Forman is a master at making her readers fall in lovewith a girl whose life is over, with a community of people in a small town who are barely surviving her loss, and with the incredible, surprising way everyone's stories knit together into a heartbreaking and hopeful whole." E. Lockhart, author of We Were Liars and Genuine Fraud
One spring afternoon after school, Amber arrives home on her bike. It's just another perfectly normal day. But when Amber's mom sees her, she screams.
Because Amber died seven years ago, hit by a car while on the very same bicycle she's inexplicably riding now.
This return doesn't only impact Amber. Her sister, Melissa, now seven years older, must be a new kind of sibling to Amber. Amber's estranged parents are battling over her. And the changes ripple farther and farther out: Amber's friends, boyfriend, and even people she met only once have been deeply affected by her life and death. In the midst of everyone's turmoil, Amber is struggling with herself. What kind of person was she? How and why was she given this second chance?
This magnificent tour de force by acclaimed author Gayle Forman brilliantly explores the porous veil between life and death, examines the impact that one person can have on the world, and celebrates life in all its beautiful complexity.

"Gayle Forman has an uncanny ability to create characters in which we see ourselves, and her latest-which looks at where love goes, after a loss-is an honest, heartbreaking elegy to how memory makes relationships eternal." - Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author
"After Life is a beautifully woven, extraordinary page-turner about a girl who has miraculously come back to life. But is it actually a miracle? I was consumed by this thought-provoking, deftly written, multilayered novel. Gayle Forman reigns as the queen of breaking hearts with a touch of magic." - Adam Silvera, #1 New York Times bestselling author of They Both Die at the End
"After Life proves once again that Gayle Forman is a master of both high concept and character. Full of grace and beauty, this book asks big questions about loss and grief, guilt and forgiveness, without ever straying from its true center: the unbreakable bond of sibling love. Forman weaves seemingly unconnected threads throughout the book, blurring the lines between fate and coincidence, until bringing it all together in a revelatory ending. I won't soon forget this one." - David Arnold, New York Times bestselling author of Mosquitoland

"I remember reading my first Gayle Forman book and how it felt like I was holding magic in my hands. After Life is no different.

A testament to the bond between sisters." - Rachael Lippincott, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author of Five Feet Apart
