I don't normally read YA, but this book so accurately recreated the summer between junior high and senior high that I almost gave it a four just for the angst it elicited. Wonderful characters with unique detail. I especially love the back story of the ghost, and--for once--I would love to see a sequel. I'm rooting for you, Xavier! [addendum: This is book one in a series. Be on the lookout for Hainted Love, the next book.]
