About this listen

My dying wish is for you to finish my bucket list. I refuse to die without knowing this list will be completed. And I refuse to die without knowing my family will be okay . . .

Jodie Boyd is a shy and anxious twenty-something, completely unsure what to do with her life. Her older sister, Bree, is an adventurous, hugely successful Instagram influencer with more than a million followers. She's the most alive person Jodie knows—up until Bree's unfathomable, untimely death from Leukemia. The Boyds are devastated, not to mention overwhelmed with medical debt. But Bree thought of everything—and soon, Jodie is shocked by a new post on her sister's Instagram feed.

The first of many Bree recorded in secret, the post foretells a jaw-dropping challenge for Jodie: to complete Bree's very public bucket list. From "Fly over Antarctica," to "Perform a walk-on cameo in a Broadway musical," if Jodie does it—and keeps all Bree's followers—a corporate sponsor will pay off the staggering medical debt. If she gains followers, the Boyds won't be the only ones to benefit. It's crazy. It's terrifying. It's impossible, immoral even, to refuse. So, despite the whole world watching, Jodie plunges in, never imagining that in death, her sister will teach her how to live, and that the last item on the list—"Fall in love"—may just prove to be the easiest.

Jody is a whiny little brat!

I love the story line but not the main character. I also regret not reading it in paper back. Instead I choose it on audible. Jody's character is annoying and she is a baby. She is so extremely self centered and as a reader, I keep hoping there is a point where she redeems herself. But she does not. In what world would a company agree to pay off her dead sister medical debts but does not expect Jody to fulfill an agreement and get viewers, advertising, make a story of it.? She self sabotages her entire life and then feels sorry for herself for doing that. I have no idea why I am even finishing the book aside from the fact that I want Claude to find happiness. Do yourself a favour and pick another book. It also blows my mind that she is so ungrateful to this airline that is paying off hundreds of thousands of dollars. Sir Ryan really should just say "Fine Jody you don't want this, ok. Here are your bills and we will drop you off back at your terrible job at the airport and you can tell your parents they can sell their home because you are selfish and will not do a bunch of fun things and post pictures on the internet" She also talks about honouring Bri but yet wallows in self pity. Terrible audio and terrible character.
