This book has been on my physical TBR for almost 2 years and I finally read it! You know when you’re waiting to read a book because you just know you’re going to love it and you want to savor it? Yeah, that was me with this book. This was SO GOOD and I’m actually glad that I waited until now to read it, because I don’t know that I would have appreciated it as much 2 years ago. The narration for this audiobook is also *chef’s kiss* so props to the narrator!

While initially I thought this book would be heavy on romance, I was surprised to find out it’s a lot more about grieving with a side of romance. There were some plot holes I didn’t love but overall I enjoyed it. I found the characters likable but wish we got to have a little more with the side characters because I enjoyed their personalities.

A sweet book that looks a little closer at death and how it fits into our lives. The romance was quirky in a charming way, once it got off the ground. Initially the interaction between the two main characters didn’t make a ton of sense to me (kissing for no reason in an alley???) but once the FMC went to her hometown the relationship made much more sense. Overall I liked it a lot.

"I began to realize that love wasn't dead, but it wasn't forever, either. It was something in between, a moment in time where two people existed at the exact same moment in the exact same place in the universe."

I kept hearing fantastic things about this story, and I decided to finally give in and read it myself. The fact that the story includes ghosts also makes it a perfect Halloween read right? Either way, I definitely understand the love for this story now! The Dead Romantics is without doubt one of my romance highlights of the year, and I'm already looking forward to read more of this author. I'm not always a big fan of paranormal romance stories, but in this case it turned out to be a big hit. I simply loved how the ghost element was woven into the story, and it really took the story to the next level for me. A lot of this also has to do with its cast of characters as well; they were extremely easy to warm up to, but then again I do love a quirky character. The slowburn romance was spot on for me, although there are some more steamy scenes included towards the ending. I wasn't even bothered by those, because by then I was way too invested in the rest of the story. The Dead Romantics isn't just about a ghostly romance, as it includes a wide range of topics including family, death, bullying and all things bookish of course. There is so much to love about this story, and I can highly recommend it to anyone looking for a well written, engaging and spooky romance.
