The setting somehow resonates with my perception of how the afterlife might look if I believed in afterlife.
I remember seeing a movie where people went to an island after death and your status on island depended on how many people remembered you back here. If the last person forgot about you you simply disappeared, faded away. This movie left very deep impression on me.

Well, if you take into account that I normally read crime fiction, SfiFi (including hardcore military ones from Baen, space opera), some fantasy. My tastes are wide, but I would characterize my usual reading as "light stuff". I do not normally seek novels, or what is sometimes characterized as "serious prose".
