schützenjunge said Fun, Easy Read. I read this in the original German.I hope the inaccurate cover (in the book, she is reborn as a beagle, not a great dane) does not speak to the quality of the translation.All I can say is that it is a fun run, not very accurate when it comes to animal life or even religion, but it ISN'T SUPPOSED TO BE.Read it for enjoyment, not enlightenment, and you will have a fun time reading it.. It's a good book Diva W Ok, it's not an excellent book but it was enjoyable and it got me thinking and I like that about a book - one that stays with you for a while after you've read it. I figure if you walk away from a book and never give it a moment's thought, then I don't think you learned from it and it thus failed you in some way. This book got me thinking about my own "karma" and how I live my life and whether or not I deserve something better in the "afterlife". And I'm still thinking so that's a good thing!Now I do think that if you are . Juan D Santamaría said Recomendable 100%. Es el primer libro que me lo he empezado un sábado por la mañana y me lo he terminado ese mismo día por la noche.Completamente divertido y que en más de una ocasión te descubres a tí mismo imaginado que es lo que hubieses hecho en su lugar.Si buscas un libro con el que divertirte un fin de semana, te lo recomiendo encarecidamente.
