“Listen for me when the wind rushes through the trees.” This has to be one of my favorite books I’ve ever read. It had everything I love in a book: romance, ghosts, silly side characters, hijinks, family drama, and of course a million reasons and lines to make me cry like a baby. I wasn’t prepared for these feelings and my chest felt heavy and sorrowful and light and hopeful the entire time. A delight.

This was so cute, I loved it! I may have known how it was gonna end super early into (I just read a manga with the same premise) but I still enjoyed the story so much! I can see Ashley becoming an auto buy author for me!
This was INCREDIBLE. I kept putting this book off for reasons I don’t know, but I’m SO glad I waited to read it now because I feel like I read it at the perfect time in my life. I laughed, I cried. I felt every possible emotion I could feel while reading this book. I loved the romance between Florence and Ben, but I loved Florence’s path to self-discovery even more. There were multiple times where I felt like Poston jumped into my brain and wrote exactly what I was thinking or how I was feeling. This is one of those “stay up late until you finish reading” books. This is one of those “I wish I could read it for the first time again” books. This book is for the burnt out older siblings who never ask for help even when they’re falling apart themselves. This book is for the hopeless romantics who have yet to experience the kind of love they see all around them. This book is for the people who solve everyone else’s problems before even thinking about their own problems. This book won’t be for everyone, but it was for me.

I must say that I didn’t know that it was a paranormal romance. I have intentionally kept away from the genre before. But I’m glad I started this book. It’s such a beautiful book. Relatable with the angst, betrayal, joy, love and turmoil. I had a hard time putting it down. There are holes in beginning of the story regarding their connections. But after just accepting it, it was easier to get swept away in their story. With Florence being a very well written character Benji becomes a bit flat in comparison.

This was cute!
A wholesome portrayal of grief & this actually had a pretty strong story/plot in my opinion. I don’t know that the writing/romance was always the strongest, but I honestly had a good time with this.
This felt reminiscent of the movie Casper & the character Lydia Deetz from Beetlejuice
