Reach for this book when your teenager feels like they are moving through the world invisible or fundamentally different from their peers. Greg was born without a shadow, a physical quirk that serves as a powerful metaphor for the isolation and self consciousness many teens feel during their formative years. When he falls for a ghost named Eleanor, he must confront both his own identity and the hidden, sometimes dark history of his small town. This graphic novel uses a gothic, atmospheric mystery to explore the necessity of self acceptance and the courage it takes to let go of the past. It is an ideal pick for readers aged twelve and up who appreciate stories that validate their inner world while providing a spooky, engaging escape. Parents will value how the story treats adolescent romance and family secrets with maturity and nuance.
