The Wish List by Eoin Colfer

 genre: middle grade/young adult fantasy

When a little thieving goes big wrong, Meg Finn finds herself at that eternal crossroads - her choices leading her to a situation in which she needs to earn a space in heaven. To try and make things right, Meg ends up in the company of an older gentleman who is looking for his own second chances. Swinging back and forth between intentional evil and a tender look at living without regret, The Wish List is a quirky journey all the way to hell and back.

This is a fast read that has its cute moments. It never quite went where I thought it would and the world building is pretty unique. I found the dialogue a bit cheesy a lot of the time but it wasn’t hard to finish so three stars from me.
