After losing her boyfriend, Jackson, nothing is the same for 15 year old Ava. She can’t seem to move on. They were supposed to be together forever; until he died. Constantly living in grief and recalling memories, Ava begins to get weird chills. Jackson is back. And he plans to continue their relationship; even if he is a ghost.
This book was… extraordinary. Being a hopeless romantic and having lost a loved one to death, I was randomly brought close to tears multiple times while reading this. The connection I felt to Ava and the hope of Jackson’s “undying” affection towards her was remarkable. Nothing shows how boundless love is the way this book does. One of the other aspects I really enjoyed was the format. The novel is written completely in verse which seems to enforce and enhance the intense emotion of the story. I Heart You, You Haunt Me by makes an amazing and quick read and I would love to get a chance to read her other novels “Far From You” and “Chasing Brooklyn” which also deal with the concepts of love and death. Lisa Schroeder is guilty of writing one of the most powerful literary pieces I have encountered and I would definitely rank this book in my top 3.
