really liked it

So I like this book. What I like about it is how sweet Kwan is, but in just about All the Books there is a straight as in serious character who refuses to believe in ghosty things.

Which is a bit irritating when you have proof such things exist.

Best thing about this book is the concept that these people cared for each other so much they kept being born again just to be with these folks. it's a nice way to look at death, really. Friendly. You loved this guy in this life so he's going to be reborn just to be with you all over again.

It was nice how Olivia learned to be more open minded. It was frustrating having the story be in mostly her perspective because I wanted to shake her and tell her to stop being so insecure, dang it. And that love isn't perfect or without problems. Just because you're not happy all the time with the person you love, doesn't mean it's not love.

Also, reading this book again made me get a bit teary in places. It really is a sweet book.
