You should read Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger - same author as The Time Traveller's Wife. I just finished it and then reading your post(s) has really made me believe in the power of coincidence and the possibility of the afterlife.
After I finished reading the book (don't be put off by the cover as I was initially) I wanted to go to Highgate Cemetery to spend some time there - you could go for me
This was another beautiful piece of writing, Em, you really should think about writing as a career.
