(Graphic paranormal. 13-17) - Laura Simeon, Kirkus Reviews Neetol's graceful artwork, all rendered in varying shades of gray with plenty of white space, nicely capture teen life and Damian's melancholy loneliness. Her figures resemble anime/manga art, with slim bodies and large round eyes ... The story was at its funniest, strongest, and most poignant when it focused on Damian and Saskia's growing friendship ... Teens who love manga will appreciate this one volume story. This would be a good read alike suggestion for readers who have enjoyed other supernatural friendship stories, such as the Sheets series by Brenna Thummler. - Susan Harari, Youth Services Book Review British author/playwright Moore provides a poignant, heartfelt tale of grief, loss, and hopeful healing. In exquisitely expressive black-grey-white swirling panels--with only the spirit flower highlighted in vibrant orange--Neetols transforms Moore's narrative into visual magic - Terry Hong, Booklist STARRED Review

Synopsis
A heart-warming, supernatural slice-of-life graphic novel that gently weaves together tough, everyday themes of identity, grief, and accepting flaws in those we love the most. Living with his grandfather and struggling in a new high school, Damian decides to summon his mother's ghost so he can talk things out - but he blows it and summons Saskia, a scruffy, annoying kid. Trying to settle into his new life, Damian doesn't need her hanging around trying to 'help' him with his crush - but Saskia's suffering too, and everything they're both hiding deep down might be just what they both need to get some peace. John Moore and Neetols paint a sweet and hilarious tale of young love amid grief, where someone's flaws might be the reason you love them the most.
