Five Days of the Ghost | William Bell

2 posts | 1 read

Poking around a sacred Indian burial ground in the middle of the night with her brother, John, isn't Karen Stone's idea of a great way to start off the summer. But she lets John talk her into it, and the two are plunged into a world they never imagined existed - a world where past and present blend, where the spirits of the dead communicate with the living.With the help of John's classmate, Weird Noah Webster, an expert on all things supernatural, Karen and John try to unravel the mystery that surrounds them.At times amused and fascinated, at times terrified, Karen is forced to confront something she has been running from for far too long.

Five Days of the Ghost | William Bell

Flashback to breakfast, when I ate zucchini fritters and finished a childhood reread. FIVE DAYS OF THE GHOST went over much better than I expected it to. It‘s genuinely creepy, and William Bell modernized this 2010 rerelease just enough to help it feel contemporary. I think that MIGHT include changes to how the settler kids interact with the Indigenous ghost they befriend, though the overall picture does still occupy Magical Native territory.

Bklover What is that deliciousness on top of those beautiful fritters?!?! 2y

xicanti @Bklover it‘s sour cream sauce with garlic, paprika, and other goodness! The fritters & sauce recipe is the August feature in the Canadian Dairy Farmers‘ 2023 calendar: https://new.milk.org/Discover-Dairy/Milk-Calendar-Collections 2y

Five Days of the Ghost | William Bell

I finally made it to Canadian Independent Bookstore Day, and I had SO MUCH FUN poking around McNally Robinson. I bought the tagged book (a childhood fave I fully expect to cringe at now), a planner to track my bike rides, and some ink for my cheap fountain pen. From the swag tables, I got a tote bag, a chocolate bar, pins, a poem postcard, a bookmark, and TJ Klune stickers.

It was totally worth a pause in the Readathon.
