Synopses & Reviews
“There’s an often imperceptible benign intelligence that pervades all reality, and given the immeasurable scope and seemingly impossible magnificence of what we can detect, it’s safe to say that everything has a reason, there’ve been no mistakes, all is well, love makes everything better, and that which doesn’t make sense yet, one day will.” Many of us believe that there is a purpose behind the events of our world, that everything happens for a reason, that there are no mistakes. Although we feel that this is true, we fear the unknown—especially when it comes to death. We wonder, “What’s next? Is there life after death? Will I ever see my loved ones again?”In The Top 10 Things Dead People Want to Tell You, New York Times best-selling author Mike Dooley explores these questions, and gives readers a fresh, unconventional and at times playful perspective on life, its meaning, and how to live it well. In ten profound chapters, he offers his personal observations about the world in the form of a letter from the recently deceased, sharing the revelations and insights they have gained since their transition, like· They’re not dead.· They’re sorry for the pain they caused.· They were ready to go when they went.· Your pets are as crazy, brilliant and loving, here, as they were there.· Life really is all about love, but not just loving those who love you…The Top 10 Things Dead People Want to Tell You offers hope to those who’ve lost loved ones, and gives us a new way of looking at death that can radically improve the way we live today.

Synopsis
"I know this may come as a shock, and you know I'm not fond of using stale one-liners, but--'reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.' I'm as alive now as I was on the day we met, except, maybe, more so."
If the dead could speak, don't you wonder what they would say to those of us they've left behind? What would they tell us to soothe our sorrow for their loss, calm our fears of what happens when we die, and fire us up to live the best possible lives we can right now?
In pages filled with wisdom, humor, and, yes, joy, New York Times best-selling author Mike Dooley explores our most pressing and profound questions about the afterlife--and this life--from the fresh perspective of those who have made the transition to the next phase. Among the revelations and insights they share:
- We were ready; you are not.
- There's no such thing as a devil or hell.
- We're sorry for any pain we may have caused.
- Your pets are just as crazy, brilliant, and loving here as they were there.
- Nothing we say can prepare you for the beauty of the moment you arrive.
You'll learn that our loved ones are not lost to us; that our time on earth is both a school and an adventure; that, all appearances to the contrary, life truly is fair; and that we have it in us to reshape our own fortunes, starting today.

Synopsis
“The dead want you to get that no matter where you are, everything is okay, getting better, and happening just as it ‘should,’ in a steady progression that will forever take you higher. . . . They want you to know that even in their absence, however much you might miss them, the fact that you still live is exquisitely meaningful. It means that you still have places to go, friends to meet, and lessons to learn; that there can still be more smiles than frowns, more laughter than crying, and more joy than sadness, in a living, loving Universe that’s literally conspiring on your behalf.”
