The majority of this novel takes place in a tea shop. There’s grief, life after death, crossing over, found family, romance, LGBTQ representation, a bit of mystery, hilarious moments and very emotional moments. This is a brief synopsis, but this book truly has everything. Reluctantly, Wallace agrees to follow Mei to Charon’s Crossing Tea Shop where he meets Hugo, a ferryman who will eventually help him cross over through a mysterious door. At his funeral, he meets Mei, a reaper who has come to help him along on his journey in the after life. But none of that matters now because within the first few chapters of this story, Wallace Price dies. He isn’t well liked by his peers, he doesn’t have any friends, his marriage has failed. He’s fought his way to the top as a hot shot lawyer working nonstop, making good money, though he doesn’t have anyone to share it with. Wallace Price has led a less than memorable life. I’m still processing through my emotions surrounding this book, which makes it extremely difficult to summarize or coherently discuss, so just bear with me. It was the perfect book for me at just the right time and it has induced one of the biggest book hangovers I’ve had all year. This pretty much sums up all of my feelings for TJ Klune’s newest book Under the Whispering Door. If you’re a reader-which I would assume you most likely are-you might be familiar with the feeling you get when you finish a book and think, this book was made for me in this exact moment. ![]() |
