This is the first time I've read a paranormal romance. It's the first time [a:Colleen Hoover 5430144 Colleen Hoover https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1464032240p2/5430144.jpg] has written one. I have no clue whether she followed the appropriate tropes, but I stayed hooked on the story, just as I always do with her books. While the story centers on the couple, Leeds and Layla, but it's told from Leeds' point of view. I think this is a real departure both for the author and for romances in general. While Hoover did a masterful job of thinking like a guy (I think), I was often left wondering about his reasoning. Not enough to put me off the story, but enough to wonder if he was not as nice a guy as he was initially portrayed to be.The spiritual depth attracted me. Where do we go, if anywhere, after death? Do we move on or just move over? Can some people sense spirits that might still be around without a body? Are there folks that know more about this phenomenon than most?I don't want to give away any of the plot. I'll just say I enjoyed the struggle between the two (or is it three?) main characters. Now, when something falls over near me for no discernible reason, I'm left wondering why—and if I'm really alone. Great read! One I might actually read it again, just like I rewatched the movie, The Sixth Sense, once I knew the ending.
