Quite a sweet, quirky little story that, while aimed at adolescents, is a satisfying quick read for an adult.

Really liked this -- it was a sweet, insightful (and humorous) read! And surprisingly great art at times. One of the Hub Reading Challenge eligible titles.

recommended by Sarah from her Maverick list (graphic novel committee)

I understand the transition from being home-schooled to entering public school. But is Lucy supposed to be considered a boy? When the protagonist did what she did, why didn't her new friends (who were older) stop her? Where were the morals? I couldn't get over it

I really liked this graphic novel. The story and illustrations were well done. A good fast read. I'm looking forward to more from the author.

I enjoyed this, and found Magggie and Lucy very loveable characters. By the end, though, I felt like there needed to be more, and hoped this would be first in a series. It seems to set itself up for more than it delivers--the sort of not quite satisfying feel the beginning of a series has.

I really enjoyed this graphic novel. I loved the characters and the drawing style. The story itself was haunting and touching with some witty humor and a bit of drama.

Great coming of age/ghost story graphic novel. I see what all the buzz is about on this one.
