I haven't read anything by this author because, and even though this book sounds like the kind of sad book I love, I'm not sure if I'll end up reading it. Anyway, it sounds really good.

A new heart saved her life—but will it help her find out what really happened to its donor?
Seventeen-year-old
Leah MacKenzie is heartless. An artificial heart in a backpack is
keeping her alive. However, this route only offers her a few years. And
with her rare blood type, a transplant isn’t likely. Living like you are
dying isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. But when a heart becomes
available, she’s given a second chance at life. Except Leah discovers
who the donor was — a boy from her school — and they’re saying he killed
himself. Plagued with dreams since the transplant, she realizes she may
hold the clues to what really happened.
Matt refuses to believe his twin killed himself. When Leah seeks him out, he learns they are both having similar dreams and he’s certain it means something. While unraveling the secrets of his brother’s final moments, Leah and Matt find each other, and a love they are terrified to lose. But life and even new hearts don’t come with guarantees. Who knew living, took more courage than dying?
This Heart of Mine is a haunting, poignant tale about living and dying, surviving grief, guilt, and heartache, while discovering love and hope in the midst of sadness.

I'd not heard of this book! It sounds a little heartbreaking and definitely not something I would usually read (I'm not a YA contemporary person!). I hope you enjoy this book when you get the chance to read it, Lis!
