Twenty-nine year old Alexandra Dorenfield suddenly fiends herself in heaven after an unfortunate encounter witha MINI Cooper. The seventh - and highest - level of heaven to be exact. Her dog Peaches is with her; she is re-united with her beloved grandparents; she has the wardrobe of a movie star; she lives in the house of her dreams next door to a handsome guy. This is heaven!

But there's a catch! In order to remain in seventh heaven. Alex must prove she led a fulfilling life by writing an essay about her ten best days on earth. If she fails she will be demoted to a lower level of heaven, where the clothes are last year's style, the men aren't quite as handsome, and worst of all, Peaches and her family won't be nearby. Witty and inspiring, this divine debut novel dares to ask material girl - and the rest of us - what makes life precious.

The story starts great and also ends this way. Somehow it is chick lit, but definitely in its best way however it is more. It is a little bit like the "5 people you meet in heaven" without being too good. I do hope, that heaven is a little bit like the picture paited by Adena Halpern, because I would like to be able to eat without having to work out or to fear weight gains and cellulite... Of course there are other lessons to be learned, before heaven and also there, but those should be read by further readers - I do not want to spoil the fun!
