Daisy Cooper’s Rules for Living

 


Daisy Cooper’s Rules for Living by Tamsin Keily is another take on the “now that I’m dead let me learn what life really is” trope.  These books can sometimes be quite imaginative as the author builds a speculative post-life universe but this particular take is weighed down by a main character that is radically self-centered.  It’s particularly odd because the author goes to great lengths to say that Daisy is selfless while consistently showing us the opposite in plot and character interaction.

The book is easy to read and does keep the reader entertained. Pick it up if you’ve an hour to kill and like exploring the “life after…” genre.
