7''12 Reasons Why I Love Her'' is a graphic novel by writer Jamie S. Rich and artist Joelle Jones, published in 2006 by Creator/OniPress.
8 It falls into the RomanticComedy genre, with some Drama sprinkles here and there, telling a casual BoyMeetsGirl story, through non-linear narrative. In essence, we follow Gwen, ''The Girl'', and Evan, ''The Boy'', through the ups and downs of their romantic life.
9 The book consists of 12 individual chapters, each of which shows the couple in a different point in their relationship, while also providing a song to accompany it, with the sole exception being the, song-less, Prologue-mini-chapter.
