Praise For This Book:
"It's 'While You Were Sleeping' meets 'Six Feet Under,' and I need to yell to everyone about how good it is...The result is an antidote for despair, a romance that is frank about the fact that life ends and time marches on but that nevertheless insists: We aren't a gothic horror novel. We're a love story. This is a book to make you laugh during the funeral scene and cry when the dance party begins."-The New York Times "We could all use a good summer ghost story, and you can't get much better than Ashley Poston's adult fiction debut."-Entertainment Weekly "I LOVED this book. A beautiful, poignant story, full of beautiful, poignant characters. Florence is exactly the type of lovable, endearing, relatable lead I want to fall for, and her journey through learning how to love again had me squealing, sighing, laughing. The Dead Romantics is like a beautifully crafted puzzle: at the end all the pieces fall perfectly into place, and the picture that they form is at once touching, funny, breathtaking, hopeful, and dreamy." -Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis "What fun-the Emily Henry/Casey McQuiston reader (aka me) is going to gobble this book up. Smart, quick, and absolutely bubbling over with love for the genre of romance itself. Delicious." -Emma Straub, New York Times bestselling author of This Time Tomorrow "The Dead Romantics was an absolute and unexpected delight. Voicy and quirky and fun; the pages will probably sparkle (but with black glitter)." -Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling author of The Unhoneymooners "The Dead Romantics takes so many things I love-quirky heroines, found families, cozy small towns, fanfics, GHOSTS (!!!)-and gives them all a fresh, fun, thoroughly modern spin. This is truly a RomCom to die for!" -Rachel Hawkins, New York Times bestselling author of Reckless Girls "This book made me fall in love, broke my heart then reassembled it at least twice, and left me swooning. A hauntingly romantic, hilariously heartwarming story. Ashley Poston is the real deal." -Gwenda Bond, New York Times bestselling author of Not Your Average Hot Guy "Poston makes her adult debut with a refreshing rom-com about love, loss, and hope....She manages to both affirm the cynics and give hope to the romantics by simultaneously embracing and subverting rom-com tropes. The sparkling dialogue makes the characters come alive-even the dead ones. Readers won't be able to put this down." -Publishers Weekly (starred review) Publisher's Website |
