Such a beauty! 🤓🤩❤️
It‘s the Dab at the bottom for me. I‘m loving this cutie patootie graphic novel 🤩😂

I absolutely loved this beautifully illustrated exploration of self-expression, growing up, imagination, death, grief, and moving forward. Every page has something fun or imaginative to discover, and the characters are a lot of fun. I didn't anticipate this exploring loss and grief, and it was handled really well. I didn't pick this as a Halloween read, but it was fun to read now since it includes Halloween. #Comics #Ghost #Halloween
This was a fun impulse read with sweet autumn vibes. I didn‘t love it like I did with The Tea Dragon Society, but I can think of some upper elementary kids I think it would speak to. #Scarathlon2022 #TeamMonsterMash @StayCurious #Spookoween2022 @TheSpineView #31by31 @Catsandbooks #PointsAThon @dieareader @GHABI4ROSES #witchathon @mdm139
Feeling left behind by friends who are growing up more quickly, Lora throws herself a seance tea party and kindles a friendship with Alexa, the ghost who haunts her house. This is a beautifully illustrated graphic novel for middle grades, with immaculate Autumn vibes and a thoughtful, if slightly sparse, story about growing up and moving on. ☕️👻🍂
Goodreads did me dirty and listed a book twice making me think I'd finished my challenge for 2021.
Luckily @thegirlwiththelibrarybag leant me this super adorable graphic novel.
So.... If you were a ghost, where would you haunt?
I loved this! Can see it becoming an October tradition. It‘s a gentle ode to leaving childhood behind but also to embracing the quirky bits of yourself and not losing sight of magic and wonder.
(I‘m also having Southern Hemisphere feels about being in the opposite season as pretty much any book set in the month of October 🥺)
Still thinking about a “social party” work Christmas party where I didn‘t know anyone - where I filled an awkward silence with - “do you know how Trotsky died? ice pick through the eye.”
Anyway (I‘m not in the social club anymore 😜)
Excited to read this adorable little graphic novel! I just recently read The Okay Witch and loved it so I‘m looking forward to reading more graphic novels! 🔮 🧙🏻
5/5 ⭐️ A young girl not quite ready to grow up befriends a ghost. So much beautiful magic and heartwarming scenes in this book! I will need a physical copy so I can reread!

A cute middle grade graphic novel about a twelve-year-old into all things spooky and the ghost living in her house. Definitely more suited to younger kids, but I enjoyed all the Halloween love and the changing friendships Lora has to navigate.
This one might just be me, because I'm super grumpy this week... but I'm bailing on this one. The art was super cute, but the story felt very similar to many of the other middle grade graphic novels for girls coming out in the last few years. I thought I was in the mood for cute, but I'm apparently not. #TBRDeckofCards
I ended up quite enjoying this one, but the beginning was a bit too disjointed for my liking. What can I say, I‘m a sucker for ghost stories. 👻
