It begins as an assignment for English class Write a letter to a dead person. Laurel chooses Kurt Cobain because her sister, May, loved him. And he died young, just like May did. Soon, Laurel has a notebook full of letters to people like Janis Joplin, Amy Winehouse, Amelia Earhart, Heath Ledger, and more-though she never gives a single one of them to her teacher. She writes about starting high school, navigating new friendships, falling in love for the first time, learning to live with her splintering family. And, finally, about the abuse she suffered while May was supposed to be looking out for her.

This luminous debut novel has garnered exhuberant pre-publication praise from Laurie Halse Anderson, Jay Asher, Gayle Forman, and Lauren Myracle, and foreign rights have sold to six countries.

Boy, oh, boy.. where to start.

I absolutely loved this book. I worried that I wouldn't like it because the entire story is told through Laurel's letters, so that means no other aspects of story telling. No cuts from the letter format. I feared I'd get bored of it or wouldn't like the way it reads, but I was so surprised how quickly and readily I ate up Laurel's words. Her thoughts were so provoking and real and relateable. I loved seeing how Laurel went through this transformation of understanding, grieving, and overall acceptance of what happened.

The relationships she builds with her new friends and love interest is so raw and real, vulnerable even because she really hasn't allowed herself the time to accept what happened to her sister.

As we delve further into the story we learn so much more about Laurel that, for me, it no longer was a book just about grievance and Laurel moving past what happened to her sister, but also what happened to Laurel herself, and how she was effected by everything. She had to come to terms with her past, and seeing it all come together was a wonderful journey.

Dellaira wrote a wonderful, real, raw, and vibrant book about acceptance and moving forward. I loved this book totally and completely. 10/10 would recommend.

Love Letters to the Dead Chapters 15 eBook Ava Dellaira Reviews


Very good teenage reading. Much better than vampires. True issues and problems. Highly recommended.
Great book. Easy read. Sometimes young adult books are better reads than adult books.
just when I get into the book, it's suddenly over! it's like the author opted to have a quick ending with out actually answering any of the questions the book brought about. ARGH!!
Give it 5 stars for getting right into the blues of high school and teens dealing with life going into adulthood. Will say after reading the book.
The frank, candid view into a teenager's heart was painful to watch. This is the book that my students have been waiting for. I can't wait to share it with them! I'm really surprised that this is the author's debut novel. The depth of emotion is so deep that it's almost as if this seasoned writer has been given a window to my soul. I look forward to reading more by Ava Dellaira.
I received this book to review. The opinions shared here are 100% mine.
I really do not care for this book, though the framework works nicely. Letters to dead celebrities and other well-known people certainly help the protagonist connect her feelings on appropriate days to the deceased being addressed. This is much like Flowers for Algernon in its journalistic style where the protagonist has had time to process her feelings and actions before writing, even if we can figure out where she is headed and she doesn't yet.
This book at first may seem like it would be a morbid collection of letters, it is instead a woven story about a young girl, longing for her lost sister. She begins a by writing a letter to Kurt Cobain, because her sister loved him so much. She continues in writing letters to other deceased people from pop culture and history, and we come to see the depth of the pain she feels. By the end of the book we are so enraptured in reading the final letter - the letter that means the most, that it brings the audience to tears.
