This book looks like a delightful diversion. Thanks to the author for offering it as a free BOTD.

This is such a cute and fun story, and I really enjoyed it. This review was very informative, hitting all the high points and defining what made the story so much fun to read, and I commend the reviewer for doing such a thorough job. I also like the fact that this reviewer was kind enough to point out that this story was adult themed and possibly not for everyone. Good job!??????

I read a bit of the opening and it did seem like an interesting twist. I look forward to the rest. And thanks for the warning on it not being a completely "clean read." Won't stop me from enjoying it but I'll watch who I recommend it to.

I really enjoy the fact that author can write a short book of less than 50 pages but still be able to tell a great story, my respects to J.D. Frettier.

Sounds like a unique book with the "The Green Room" idea of purgatory. The fact it was one of the most captivating short stories you ever read is intriguing.
Thanks for the great review.

What a great review. I loved reading the story. It seems like the husband wife dead wife friend had mire pull on her than he did. He wanted her to live and she willed be to die. She died but what happens next? The book Desperately Seeking 69 is awesome. I rate it as 4.0.

I sometimes wish that authors would venture into short stories more often. I see so much brilliance out of novels and wonder if they could exhibit that in just 50 or so pages. Additionally, this theme seems to be growing in popularity. I first loved it after reading the Book Thief and am always looking for a new spin on things like it.

I just finished reading this and I found the main character pretty funny. I think I enjoyed this book so much because of how the characters were portrayed.

Thank you for the great review although at first I thought this was not the type of book I would enjoy. After reading about the fast-paced flow of the storyline, yet with great character developments I believe the book will be a page turner for me too. The afterlife is a mystery to all of us. I am especially drawn to it although some would consider it dark fascination. Now with the book's take on sex and mundane things like coffee and body scuplting in the afterlife...yes, I will want to read the book soon.

Thanks for the great review. The story is a big jump from my favorite genre but I was surprised I kept on reading. Thankfully it is short but real captivating. Congratulations to the author for BOTD.

I was kind of skeptical about this book until I read the first two chapters. I am hooked! You wrote an excellent review.

What a great and light hearted look at sex, love, Woodstock, and the afterlife.
If you have ever laughed at your family, sex, or the trouble you’ve gotten in to
with your best friend this is the book for you.

JD Frettier is the nom de plume of USA Today Bestselling Author Jennifer Theriot. Being a child of the 1960s and Woodstock era, she was elated when a quirky couple spoke to her, requesting their love story be told. It was an offer she couldn’t refuse and so decided to venture into the world of paranormal via “channeling” with her debut novella, Desperately Seeking Sixty-Nine. JD’s laptop and mind are now open to new characters, and she’s already interviewed a new character for a future project.

Frankly I damn near pissed myself laughing so hard at this story. Bonnie is feisty and blunt. Dee is seriously flower-child funny. Peter...Lord help us. That man... I only hope that when I pass I can have an experience such as this. But, on the flip side, there was a true love story here, too

I loved this! It was unique and funny! It's a story about one woman's life and her afterlife! About going back to a time that meant the most to you! In Bonnie's case it meant going back,it meant remembering her life with Peter,her husband! Starting with how they met,in 1969 at Woodstock! Along the way she is reconnects with him in more ways than one!!

The review is good. However it is very hard to believe that Bonnie perfered to go home to the afterlife rather than to stay with her tear grieved husband Peter. Her lady friend willed her to come on a journey with her but in actuality. She didn't really know where she was going. They had the green room and perfecting of the body. However they were two lost souls among other lost souls. Life had to be very difficult for Bonnie to follow the light into unknown territories instead of sticking with a life that she was familiar with.
