Summary: interesting
Comment: I am a very big fan of the Artemis Fowl books, but this one just can't compete. It was very good and a well written book but I just could not get into it like the Fowl books. The book is about a young girl, Meg Finn, who has just begun to enter the world of crime. While doing a favor for a "friend" Meg finds herself in the position of choosing whether to save a man or let him die. But something goes terribly wrong and Meg finds herself, as well as her "friend", dead. Now, in order to reach Heaven she has to go back to Earth and make amends for her life to the tune of good deads. The book is fairly fast paced, and action packed, it has a lot of dry humor and most Artemis Fowl fans should like it.
I would recomend reading this book if you are looking for something easy to read, it does not have many plot twists so it is not all that hard to read.

Summary: Great Book!
Comment: Have you ever wondered what it's going to be like after death? Well, in The Wish List, Eoin Colfer answers that question with Meg Finn and her friend Belch.
I absolutely loved this book and it brought me into the book so it was like I was standing on the sidelines. This book is fun and will keep you guessing whether Meg evens up her tally and can go to heaven or if Belch wins over and takes her back to Hell. The journey Meg and Lowrie have together is absolutely amazing, especially how they get about the wishes. When you hear the wishes, they will make you want to read more just to find out how they will complete the wish.
Meg Finn and her friend Belch attempt to rob a elderly man named Lowrie McCall, but things go wrong, Meg and Belch end up dead. Belch is sent straight to Hell but in the last few moments of Meg's life, she evens her tally between Hell and Heaven, so she is sent back to help old Lowrie make something of his life. Meg has to get Lowrie to accept her help in finishing a "Wish List", he wants to complete while he still is alive on Earth in order to tip her tally towards Heaven. She doesn't have it easy though. Meg's soul is a "special soul" and Satan wants this soul, so he send Belch to stop her from helping old Lowrie.
I believe the purpose of this book was to elaborate with creative writing to tell more about the after life. This is a good book to get a break from lifewith. It may even help you want to get your wish list started.

Summary: Wish List
Comment: I found this book very boring. I found tha language used was effective but this did not overcome the fact that the jokes made where very lame. I found it very hard to get into this book.One of the very few things i like in this bok was the relationships, such as Beelzebub and Saint Peter or Frankie and Meg. Remember this is my own personal review and you can think what you like.
