I would absolutely not say this was the perfect book by any means, but I got through it so quickly once I really got into the story that I know I enjoyed this book enough to give it a 4 star rating. I felt like the plot was very predictable, but that didn’t keep me from feeling strong emotions when there was a twist or when secrets were revealed, which I loved about this book. I really enjoyed the author’s writing as well. I thought the dialogue was funny where it needed to be, and it was very descriptive as well. I will definitely be picking up other books by this author, and I would recommend this book to others!

Romance books are usually not my favorite, but I really liked this, certainly my favorite romance! It might've been the magical realism for my, I really liked that addition to the plot. Very cute and easy to read (though might be sad at times!)

I really really liked this book the first half! I was hooked, but I think after two thirds I got a bit “tired” of it and was a bit annoyed with the characters. 
Super cool concept, and very interesting. But I can’t give it a 5 star :/

This book was magical and charming and absolutely lovely. It was utterly romantic and incredibly poignant. It’s about love and grief and the magic of memories. It’s about embracing change, chasing the moon, and learning to say goodbye. And it was so, SO GOOD. I cried at least three times.

“Because the things that mattered most never really left. The love stays. The love always stays, and so do we.”

I loved, loved, loved this book. I think Ashley Poston writes really beautiful love stories with just a sprinkling of magic. This story was sweet, funny, sad, charming, and lovely all in equal measure.

   I absolutely adore EVERYTHING about this book. It was adorable, sad, inspiring, cute, hot at times, and had such a good storyline and magical realism element to it. The way everything connected and the way the characters thought was just perfect. 
   5/5 stars and I will in fact be reading The Dead Romantics because I want anything like this I can get my hands on. I will most DEFINITELY think about this book for a long long time, if not forever. Love you Ashley Poston, thank you so much for this amazing book that made my heart swell with joy!!🌻

This was a great book. It was funny, emotional, heartwarming, sad, romantic… all the good things.

I’m always pleased when a NY setting feels like a character of its own. This book did a great job at capturing that idea, but not in an overwhelming way.

The characters were so great. Reading about an almost 30yo who was stuck in a rut was so relatable. 

The nickname was super cute! And the meshing of the then/now was really well done. 

I just really loved reading this
