Here Goes Nothing Steve Toltz
PENGUIN RANDOM HOUSE
If you like your fiction left- of- centre, then this book’s for you. Angus Mooney struggles for most of his life, until he meets his wife, marriage celebrant Gracie (whose wedding ceremonies are anything but traditional). Just when things are starting to work out, an old guy with a terminal illness barges into their house and asks to stay – until he dies. When Angus does some research on their ‘guest’, he wakes up the next day in the ‘afterlife’, and has to watch on the sidelines as his guest seduces his wife.
