Review:
If you've read my previous book reviews of Lisa's work, Far From You and I Heart You, You Haunt Me, then you probably already know what I'm going to say!

I absolutely loved, and devoured, Lisa's two earlier books and I couldn't wait to get my hands on Chasing Brooklyn! And I'm glad that I did!

To begin with, I am a huge fan of the cover! Normally, I'm drawn to black covers, but there's just something about the blue-green hue to this one. The cover obviously reflects the storyline and I think that's exactly what a cover should do! And of course, it always helps to have a quote from a bestselling author :)

Unlike the other two books I've read from this author, this book actually comes to life by telling the story from two different character's points of view. Usually, this is something that many authors can't pull off, but I think that Lisa mastered it wonderfully!

In the attempt to show the uniqueness of both characters, Lisa not only made them sound different, but she wrote their parts differently too! For example, at the beginning of each poem, Brooklyn's titles are in a script font, while Nico's seems to be more of a handwritten font. Not only that, but each character uses different spacing on the page. While Brooklyn's lines are very close together, Nico's line height seems to be wider. And lastly, Brooklyn tends to speak longer than Nico and her writing is more poetic than his.

Ultimately, I think that Lisa did an amazing job with both her characters and the dual narration. I honestly can't think of anyone that's done as great a job as she has. I can only hope that my first multiple point of view novel is as good as hers!

To be honest, there isn't much that I didn't like about Chasing Brooklyn. I loved the characters, the plot, and the ending! The only thing I would change, and I've mentioned this before, is the girly font. At times it can be hard to read, but it doesn't affect the story too much!

Overall, I would 100% recommend this book! So far, I've loved everything from Lisa Schroeder and I'm not surprised that I loved this one too! It's a hauntingly poetic story of two grieving teens who not only find comfort in each other, but happiness too! I truly hope you get a chance to read it!
