Girl meets boy.
Girl loses boy.
Girl gets boy back...
...sort of.
Ava cant see him or touch him, unless shes dreaming. She cant hear his voice, except for the faint whispers in her mind. Most would think shes crazy, but she knows hes here.
Jackson. The boy Ava thought shed spend the rest of her life with. Hes back from the dead, as proof that love truly knows no bounds.
This is a touching story, written in free verse, about a teenage girl whose boyfriend dies. We see her go through all the different phases of this loss. Shes grieving, and feels she is to blame for his death. But Jackson starts to appear to her in her home, as a ghost. This book is a wonderful read for teenagers who have lost someone close to them, and even those who have not. Its all about healing, and moving forward with your life after a tragedy.
It is recommended for grades 9 and up. There are mild references to sex, but I dont think its something an 8th grader should be kept from reading. Its beautiful poetry, and an easy read.
