Chasing Brooklyn by Lisa Schroeder
This is a companion book to I Heart You, You Haunt Me. A novel in verse from both Brooklyn and Nico's perspectives. I enjoyed how this is a ghost story but not way you think it is going to be, because it's also a love story. Once again I feel admiration to the novelist that has the ability to refine and edit down their work to this polished simplicity.
From the back cover:
Brooklyn can't sleep. Her boyfriend, Lucca, died only a year ago, and now her friend Gabe has just died of an overdose. Every time she closes her eyes, Gabe's ghost is there waiting for her. She has no idea what he wants, or why it isn't Lucca visiting her dreams.
Nico can't stop. He's always running, trying to escape the pain of losing his brother, Lucca. but when Lucca's ghost begins leaving messages telling Nico to help Brooklyn, emotions come crashing to the surface.
As the nightmares escalate and the messages become relentless, Nico reaches out to Brooklyn. But neither of them can admit that they're being haunted. Until they learn to let each other in, not one soul will be able to rest.
