1.75

My score was going to be lower because the first 77% of this novel are a total slog but it ties up pretty nicely in the end (even if I did guess one of the two "twists." ) I think If I erased this novel from my brain I would be okay for it? Leads were uninteresting (sweaters and pop culture/literature references are her entire character ) and the chemistry didn't click until the end. The concept of falling in love with a dead person was one that had been done before but I expected a new take on it.. and never received it. A re-hash of tropes and formulas this one left me... wanting something else but it was an easy enough read.
