Great and easy to read

A very easy read that I didn't want to put down. Definitely recommend!

Love Letters to the Dead was one of my favorites in high school

I love that this book gives an inside look to how teens process and deal with grief. This book absolutely helped me through one of the roughest times in my life

This book is the be of my top 5. I love it.

This book made me laugh and brought me to tears so many times throughout the read. I’ve reread it more times than I can count and each time I have the same reactions. I personally relate to a part of this book and I’m so happy I found it.

This book was fantastic...so raw and emotional and i loved how it made me learn about famous people who died too soon on top of it. it had a lot of really good musical references too which i absolutely adored.

Breath taking

The story, the imagery, everything about this book is just amazing. I loved every second of it and I cried when it was done.

Beautiful.
