Anya's Ghost

Anya's Ghost by Vera Brosgol

This is a graphic novel which usually isn't my genre of choice but I like this one.  In this book, Anya, a teenager,  falls into a well and finds a set of bones there.  There is a ghost who is haunting the well.  When rescued, Anya realizes she has brought a part of a finger bone out of the well with her so the ghost is now following her around--at school, at home etc.  Anya does see some perks to have a ghostly friend, especially one who can look at test papers of classmates for a test Anya didn't study for.  But the ghost has her own ulterior motive and Anya needs to confront the ghost in order to protect herself and her family.

This was a very quick read and I think that both boy and girl readers would like it.  There was enough of a plot for me that the graphic novel format did not bother me.  I enjoyed this book.
