Reviews

Achingly, urgently, Jade Song probes at loneliness with some of the most poetic prose I've ever had the good luck to read. A dizzying and yearning story of love and loss, I can't remember the last time a book made me gasp like this one did. Death, sex, student debt - I Love You Don't Die is unflinching -- Stuart Pennebaker, author of GHOST FISH A necessary and moving work about how death can be our greatest teacher for how to live, I Love You Don't Die is an ode to the power of friendship and community's ability to be the bridge we build on our way to death. How can a society that doesn't value life possibly prepare for death? Song reckons with these and other urgent questions, exploring the commodification of death and how consumerism is another kind of death that also seeks to reduce our humanity into objects or output. This book made me seek out my loved ones and hold them a little closer. -- Ling Ling Huang, author of NATURAL BEAUTY and IMMACULATE CONCEPTION Beautiful, rich, and captivating. Jade Song invites you into an immersive season of melancholy, where hearts run free and love ambushes as readily as death itself. An experience to be savored -- Hailey Piper, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of QUEEN OF TEETH [On Chlorine:] This fantastically strange, explosive debut novel entrances even as it unsettles. It's so brilliantly written * Buzzfeed * [On Chlorine:] a coming-of-age story with a touch of mystery and myth * The Economist * [On Chlorine:] Jade Song's razor-sharp voice cuts through their debut, a deep-dive into the messy business of teen obsession -- Nadia Attia, author of VERGE [On Chlorine:] In Song's disturbing and visionary debut, a child pushed too hard to succeed becomes a monster of her own making . . . It's a singular coming-of-age * Publishers Weekly *
