Synopsis 

There's death all around us.
We just don't pay attention.
Until we do.

The last time Lex was happy, it was before. When she had a family that was whole. A boyfriend she loved. Friends who didn't look at her like she might break down at any moment.

Now she's just the girl whose brother killed himself. And it feels like that's all she'll ever be.

As Lex starts to put her life back together, she tries to block out what happened the night Tyler died. But there's a secret she hasn't told anyone-a text Tyler sent, that could have changed everything.

Lex's brother is gone. But Lex is about to discover that a ghost doesn't have to be real to keep you from moving on.

From New York Times bestselling author Cynthia Hand, The Last Time We Say Goodbye is a gorgeous and heart-wrenching story of love, loss, and letting go. 

I have to admit I wasn't a huge fan of Cynthia Hand's paranormal trilogy, Unearthly. However, that was more because of the plot and genre, rather than the writing style, which is why I'm very excited for her new contemporary book. I've already heard so many good things about it from bloggers who got a chance to read advanced copies so I can't wait to get my hands on it in a few weeks.
