Why read it?
1 author picked Ghosts as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love how Raina reaches out of her largely autobiographical work and delves into the world of spirituality and folklore. There’s also the very realistic, dire, and looming “ghost” of the character Maya’s cystic fibrosis. In the story, Raina masterfully weaves reality and fantasy.

As someone with a pretty strong spiritual bent, this book really resonates with me.
From Terri's list on that deal with things outside of middle school.
