There is death all around us.
We just weren’t paying attention.
Until we do.

Now she’s just the girl whose brother killed herself. And it looks like that’s all she’s going to be.
As Lex begins to settle back into her life, she tries to stop what happened the night Tyler died. But there’s a secret she hasn’t told anyone yet – one text Tyler sent could change everything.
Lex’s brother is gone. But Lex is about to discover that a ghost doesn’t have to be real to stop you from moving on.
From New York Times bestselling author Cynthia Hand, The Last Time We Say Goodbye is a beautiful and heartbreaking story about love, loss, and letting go.
This really exceeded my expectations. For the most part, I don’t want to put it down! It’s a very comprehensive novel, combining love, loss, strength, family, relationships, secrets, surprises, healing, and more. The main characters are easy to like and I find myself liking them all. Although the main theme of the plot is not a happy one, the novel continues to shine. I laughed, I was wonderfully touched and surprised. I read it constantly, and this is one of my favorite novels of the year so far. I will check the author again, for sure! The narration is amazing, I adore Julia Whelan and in my opinion her performance here elevates the novel. I ran out of money and bought this, and it was worth every penny!
