A unique plot set in New Orleans with complicated relationships, family drama, ghosts, and more has set this series off to a terrific start.

The Ghost Who Was Afraid of Everything | Nadia Ahmed (Illustrator)

3.5 ⭐ This is a bad ghost who‘s afraid. But one year when he doesn‘t get what he most wants from his family, he decides the only way to ensure that is to become less afraid. He spends the year slowly building up stamina so that he can join his family to get what they most desired. Occasionally, there‘s a setback, but the setbacks make him stronger in the end. This is a great message. The story is a little long, but in total

LibrarianRyan works quite well. The illustrations are unique and unusual but work perfectly for this book in the setting.

3 ⭐ A ghost loves being in the meadow, making friends collecting flowers, etc. Their dream job is to take over the haunting of a very important castle. Upon landing their dream job they do it and they love it until they realize that they‘re losing part of themselves. They need to go back to the meadow. I understand the allegory of this book. That sometimes what you dream of doing is not actually right for you. But I‘m not sure if it‘s the phrasing

LibrarianRyan or if it‘s the way it‘s written. This book makes it seem like Wolfgang went back to the meadow, but took some of the haunting stuff with them When I think a better message might have been to be able to do a little bit of both. I‘m not sure I do like the art. I‘m just not the biggest fan of the story. 3mo

My view on the existence of ghosts or spirits is like my belief in God - I tend towards being agnostic in that there has been no definitive proof that God exists or doesn't exist, but like the ancient Romans believed about the gods of others, what's the harm in covering all bases just in case!

In a purely entertainment capacity, I thought this was pretty good. (continued)

OutsmartYourShelf I've never seen Mia's TV show or really read anything else about her but thought she came across quite well. The 'cases' of haunted homes were intriguing to read about although there was some repetition in what was said etc. If you're interested in the world of psychic mediums, then this would be probably be a good start. Nothing too over the top. 4🌟
