Life After Life
by Kate Atkinson
Kate Atkinson's Life After Life hands Ursula Todd an unlimited supply of do-overs. Born in an English snowstorm in 1910, she dies and is born again and again, through the Spanish flu, a violent marriage, and the Blitz. A historical novel about regret, second chances, and what if getting a life right were even possible.
