I wasn’t familiar with Jason Reynold’s Ghost, so I wanted to check it out. I was impressed! It’s a great children’s novel that features a young male protagonist named Castle who joins a track team, while he struggles to come to terms with his past and his present. I’d recommend it to young male readers aged 11-14 especially, but really anyone who wants a realistic sports-themed coming of age novel that’s a quick read. The writing language is easy to follow and mimics the voices of young teens accurately. It’s also the first in the Track series, so there’s more if you get hooked! .
