I had such a good time with this book! It has been years since I last picked up Katie McGarry's work but I knew that I had to give this book a try. Once I picked this book up, I couldn't stop reading and ended up spending most of the day cuddled under a throw with this book in my hand. I can't think of a better way to spend the day. This was one of those books that you just don't want to put down. I am really glad that I decided to give it a try.
Veronica believes in ghosts. Of course, she sees them all the time so it would be hard not to believe. Veronica lives with her father in the top two floors of an old house, that happens to be haunted. She has a pesky little tumor in her brain but she isn't going to let that have any control over her life even though the headaches she gets, as a result, can wipe her out.
Sawyer lives with his mom and 6-year-old sister. They move into the rental unit that takes up the first floor of the house that Veronica lives in. Sawyer is responsible and spends a lot of time taking care of his sister and his mother. He excels at swimming and has an addiction to adrenaline rushes. He does not believe in ghosts.
I loved Veronica and Sawyer. They were both dealing with some pretty big issues and I thought that they really saw each other in a way that no one else did. They had wonderful chemistry together and I loved it when they were able to be together and just be themselves. They both go through some pretty rough stuff in this book and I loved the way that they were there for each other and supported each other. Their actions really showed how much they care for one another.
I would recommend this book to others. I thought that this was a very well done story with amazing characters. The story took a few turns that I didn't see coming which made it even more exciting. I plan to read much more from Katie McGarry soon!
I received an advanced review copy of this book from Tor Teen via Bookish First.
