I can't remember how I discovered this strange, funny, touching, and curious novel... it certainly wasn't the dull title. But I was immediately sucked in by the quirky story of a man who was supposed to die (but didn't), his companion ghost (who apparently is not needed yet), and the woman that both he and his ghost love. Oh, and did I mention the dog? Ben Gould's dog Pilot is also a main character in the story, and as things get stranger (the living and not living overlap when things go awry after Ben doesn't die), the dog Pilot talks (in dog language, of course) to the humans. There are dark forces at work, of course, as some people (or spirits? or demons?) are not pleased that Ben has survived his near-death experience. The Ghost in Love is funny, romantic, strange, and extremely thoughtful... you will want to revisit moments and memories from your own life, just as the characters do.
