Great book. It's not about divorce, but about a fictional bus ride from hell to heaven. Residents of hell are then greeted by former friends who try to convince them to join them in heaven. Really entertaining and thought-provoking book about the things that keep us "stuck" in life.
Don't forget to check the local library...
I found this there and there is no additional cost to read it (since we already pay taxes for the library system).

No kidding, as a pre teen i lived out in the middle of nowhere without internet. until i found out the libarary rented dvds, and then i was surprised to find they got pretty good movies in regularly.... i rented a lot of dvds from the library at 50 cents charge....

One of the best libraries I ever came across was in the middle of "nowhere" Illinois - not only great books, videos, but their CD checkout was unmatched. As in rare boxed set complete recordings unmatched.

My library is hooked up to Kanopy so rentals are no extra cost there. Libraries have surely changed some since the old Dewey decimal system!
Kanopy works on a credit system, which renews each month. I get like 15 credits which I think equates to 15 movies per month. And we get up to 3 days to watch the items once they start. Children's/Kid's movies are unlimited! There are ways to not use credits too.

Why don't you just return them on time? My library charges fees only for items overdue.
Great book, short and easy to read but at the same time packing a great deal of insight.
The title is a reference to "The Marriage of Heaven and Hell", the book is about residents of Heaven trying to convince the residents of Hell to leave it... you'd think it be an easy sell, right? Why would someone choose Hell over Heaven? Why would someone choose the world over God? That's what this book is about.

I bought it for this price in 2017 and haven't read the digital copy yet. Oops. At least Amazon told me so I didn't buy it again.
