ABOUT THE BOOK



Hope Landon has been rewriting other people's greeting cards since she was six years old -- there's always a funnier caption. She's all set to chase those creative dreams with her musician fiance in New York City until he leaves Hope at the altar, deciding he must not really love this girl if he can't write a song for her. That may give her something to write about . . .


Hope disappears alone on what was supposed to be the couple's month long honeymoon. Upon returning she learns of her funeral -- everyone in her life concluded Hope must have killed herself after being jilted. Needing a fresh start more than ever, she heads for the Big Apple only to discover it's not that easy to rent a place when you've been declared dead.


Taking shelter at the YWCA, Hope soon lands a job at a Christian inspirational greeting card company as an assistant to Jake, a guy who shut down his organization's humor department. She has lost her faith in love; he needs to find something or someone that will make him laugh.


Is there anything in the cards for these two? Find out in the truly original Greetings from the Flipside by authors Rene Gutteridge (Boo) and Cheryl McKay (screenplay for The Ultimate Gift).

MY REVIEW-This was somewhat of an odd book. I enjoyed it and the comedy was kinda funny, but almost all the way through the book the female lead character is in a coma. So you see things from the flipside. Lets just say different. My mother read the book as well and wasn't sure exactly what was going on. If the girl was dead or alive? I knew ahead of time but still, it is not your normal Christian fiction novel. If you like those ones that make you sit up and take notice, or maybe even wonder if you are reading things right, this is the book for you:)
