Critical Praise

"Intriguing, stimulating, original, unpredictable, frightening, utterly engaging --- The Other Life reminded me why I love to read. Ellen Meister is a writer with a limitless future."

—Michael Palmer, New York Times bestselling author of The Second Opinion and The Last Surgeon

"Ellen Meister makes a big leap toward the literary in The Other Life, a book where “What if” becomes the most powerful question in the world. This is the thinking woman’s beach read, a love story to the modern family, written with a deep and lovely understanding of mothers and daughters and the sacrifices they’ll make for each other."

—Joshilyn Jackson, New York Times bestselling author of The Girl Who Stopped Swimming

"Gripping! A truly fascinating story of love, loss, and a magical place in between."

—Beth Harbison, New York Times bestselling author of Hope in a Jar

"The Other Life is a provocative and unique tale of the road not taken. Ellen Meister puts a magical, masterful spin on one of my favorite questions: "What if?" What if you took both roads? You won't want to miss this one!"

—Sarah Addison Allen, New York Times bestselling author of The Girl Who Chased the Moon
