I Heart You, You Haunt Me

Reader reviewed by kathy

I think that "I Heart You, You Haunt Me" was a good book. It wasn't really what i expected but you still fell that certain type of emotion when you read about someone losing a loved one. The book was shorter than i thought and didn't really describe a lot of things.
Other than that, it still went on with the story.
A girl who lost her boyfriend, finds out that his "spirit" is still with her, and then lets go and moves on. That pretty much wraps it up. But as your reading you can see that the dead boyfriend is still madly in love with her and just wants her to be HAPPY.

Even though the story could have been better, i would still recommend this to readers.

  This book is about fifteen year old Ava, who is madly in love with her boygriend Jackson.   Thena Jackson dies and Ava thinks it's all her fault, because it is.
 
  A few days after Jacksons funeral Ava is putting on make up because her friends are coming over.  It is then that she feels cool air and a familiar presance behind her, and when she looks in the mirror, and for a split second she sees Jackson.   After that she doesn't want to leave home, to leave him for quite a while.  She feels guilty and sad and crazy at the same time.  She would tell some one that her dead boyfriend is haunting her, but they would think she's crazy.  Then she finds a great guy who she really likes but her BFF Cali likes him a lot.  He likes Ava though but understands she just not ready to date.  Finally all her problems work out though and  ends up happy.

I really like this book even though it makes me kinda sad.  you gotta feel bad for Ava .... and Jackson.
I loved and i think anyone reading this will too.

I just finished reading this book about 30 minutes ago. At first, I thought I was not going to like it, because I just finish reading KISS BY AN ANGEL by Elizabeth Chandler and I thought it would be too sad to read. BUT, I as I continued to read it, it made me really feel that if you lose someone you truly love, you don't have to feel guilty by moving on. This book wasn't drawn out, but right to the point where you actually enjoyed Ava telling you the story on how she met Jackson and how he made her feel when they were together. This was a really good short read.

This was good and was written in verse which was something really
new to me. It made it about a 2 hour read (if that!). What an
interesting story and without all of the wasted space that is used up
by filler in so many other books.

You really felt for Ava because it's so much easier to sympathize
with a spouse or older significant other. But what happens when the
person who looses their other half is younger? She didn't fit in at the
funeral, and had major feelings of guilt that she couldn't deal with.
Then what do you do when you are haunted by your boyfriend?

This had the depth without drowning you with tears while reading. It
was balanced, and completed at the end. You didn't feel as though you
had unresolved issues with any of that character which you sometimes
feel when you read a book about death.

A must read!

I really liked this book. Its about a girl named Ava, whos boyfriend died. She blames herself for it and wishes there was some way to bring him back. Now and then she feels him, smells his smell, and sometimes even hears him. Being in Avas place wouldn't be easy. Letting go will be the hardest part of all. While you read this book i'm sure you'll feel the guilt Ava feels and you to will wish there was some way to bring back the boy that Ava once loved.

I heart you, You haunt me is a very good book. I just couldn't put it down!!! It's about a girl named Ava. Ava lost her boyfriend named Jackson in an accident and she has a hard time learning how to let go. She still feels him around her. At first she pushes everyone away but she learns how to let go and move on. Most importantly, Ava learns that she can be happy again.

I Heart You, You Haunt Me is a great book. It ony took me 1 1/2 hours to read, and in that time I was overpowered by this book. With an unusual format it takes a little shorter time to read than other 200+ paged books. The unusual format just makes the book even more exciting though! I really liked the characters and liked how Lisa S. made them all so unique, but alike. It really is a great book and recommend it to book lovers like me!

I Heart You, You Haunt Me, gave me a lot to think about. It's about a girl named Ava, who basically caused her boyfriend to die by daring him to do something, which he failed in. They loved each other very much, and icould not but help admire their admiration of each other. She has to go through a lot of thinking and pain about it, and she feels very guilty. Though it was hallucinations, I believe, she kept seeing Jackson everywhere in her house, and in the end she realized he'd want her to have joy, not to be all filled with guilt and sadness all the time. A very touching book, though the ending was okay, it was not completely satisfying. But the start and middle kept me hanging at all times at what condition she will be at. :D I found it very interesting reading the book in all poetry/free verses...

I really liked the story plot. I was hoping to see a little more humor and a little less seriousness. i thought it really creavtive that it was a ghost that she was still acttached to. but i love how she didnt fall for lyricbut better yet told him that she wasnt the one for him.

I must admit I expectd Ava to turn out to be the dead one or crazy in the end. I'm not sure why! I was really touched by how it really ended though. It was very bittersweet. I also enjoyed the free verse style. I have read a little of another book in the same style but found it distracting (although I didn't finish the book for other reasons), so I was glad to find it had a nice flow in this book.
