"Colorful"

"Colorful" is my favorite book. It is Japanese book and it is written by Eto Mori

I first read this book when I was 5th grade. My mother bought this book for me to read.

This book's main character is a boy. He is already dead, but he gets chance to live again because he won a lottery to live again. Even though he didn't wish to live again, angel came and told him " You can live again!" and he started to live again.

However, he had told that he has to live as another human, so he started to live as "Makoto Kobayashi", a 14years old boy. He lived happily but he one day, he thought he wants to give Makoto's body back toMakoto. This means his soul dies and Makoto's soul goes back to Makoto's body. Then, angel says that " If you want to give back your body, you have to figure out what is your crime that you did in previous existence in three days." So he tries to figure out it.

Finally, He finds out that "He" was the "Makoto Kobayashi". He's crime is that he suicide in previous existence. So he decides to live again and not to suicide.

It was very unique setting and i enjoyed to read it. It is used as a musical right now and it is very famous. I would like to read more books of Eto Mori.
