The Death of a Rose
Warning: This book has a 'potty' theme. It suggest that when a toilet flushes, someone is coming from or going into their afterlife. *Mae Rose McElroy dies on the toilet after a final fit of rage at her husband who has brought her beloved yellow VW Bettle home after he had an accident in it. She ascends to her afterlife where she is met by a 'Reflection Agent'. While Mae Rose is convinced that she deserves a crown for putting up with her weak and unfaithful husband for thirty years, Mae Rose is shocked to learn that Heaven comes in stages and she must complete 'The Dial' before she can ascend further.
•The Dial shows Mae Rose that she could have had a wonderful life and marriage. She decides to violate the 'No Meddling Rule'--the only rule in heaven, because she wants to get back to earth to tell her husband Art what she's learned. That little trick earns her a trip back to earth but not as she had hoped.
•Mae Rose's spirit ends up sharing the body of a dying horror film producer, Mary Lee Broadmoor, who is glad to be dying but insists that she deserves an Oscar for one of her several movies before she dies.
•What ensues is a hilarious rollercoaster of events. How will these two cantankerous, mean-spirited women fix this mess. Can they, or will they die trying?
•A review called it "A love story for the ages".
