this was such a wonderful little ghost story about a kid dealing with loss and figuring out who they are. 
i wasn’t expecting to be quite as emotional as i was reading this, but i teared up so many times!!

i loved how the haunting stuff was used in the story (both metaphorically and as a very real thing that’s going on.) 
it worked very well.

also, even though i’m not the target audience (age-wise) for this middle grade book, Bug was such a relatable character to me. 
i guess more specifically, Bug reminded me a lot of my own younger self, and i think a lot of kids and older people alike will be able to see some of themselves reflected in this character.
