PBS' Great American Read program introduced me to Jason Reynolds and “Ghost.” And, I'm so glad! This is a delightful Book because we hear the voice of a teenager who is just learning he has a talent for running, but also that he sometimes doesn't make the best decisions. And that he can find ways to take a horrible experience that shattered his family and rise above.

I loved the characters in this book because they are real people with real issues and real ways of looking at things. This is not just for young adults; a good book is a good book. And I look forward to reading additional books in this series, as well as other books by this author.

Also, I listened to the audiobook version on Libby and the narrator was amazing!
