Review: The Waiting Room by Alysha Kaye

The Waiting Room by Alysha Kaye

The novel is about a man who dies and ends up stuck in a place called The Waiting Room.  People who go to the waiting room are quickly moved on to their next life.  But he doesn't get called to move on and becomes a mystery to those that work there.  He waits and watches his wife out of the big windows.

This story is unique and has a fresh take on death.  I usually am not one who likes romance in books, I usually find it cheesy and unrealistic.  However, the romance in this story was neither cheesy, nor unrealistic.  They were believable and lovable.  I loved that they weren't perfect people, they made mistakes.

This story had me laughing, thinking, and tearing up.  It was a beautiful story that I will be reading again.

The end was one of the most memorable and really left an impact.  It was what sealed the deal of being one of my top favorite books of the year.

I recommend this book to anyone who like sweet love stories, stories of friendship, and want a good laugh and cry.

I gave The Waiting Room 4.5/5 stars.
