The Invoice by Jonas Karlsson

27245980

How happy are you with your life?  Do you think you are more or less happy then your friends and neighbours?  What makes one person happier than another?  Is it money?  Family?  Travel?  Love?

The main character (no name given) has received an invoice for an obscene amount of money.  He's been told it is time to pay up for all the wonderful experiences he's had in life so far.  But how has this company come up with this number?  How have they rated his level of happiness?  Is he happy?  What's the worst things that have happened to him?

This was a quick read.  Interesting how he reflects and evaluates his life.  This would make a good book club discussion.  The Invoice will be published in Canada on July 12th, 2016.
