I received an ARC from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review

This book brought some feels to it. A young girl, Marjorie, coping with the loss of her mother, feeling unaccepted and running the family laundromat. Her dad is also suffering and kind of locks himself away since the death. We also have a ghost, Wendell, who died young and also feels unaccepted in his own after life among other ghosts. On top of it all, some slimeball is trying to sabotage the laundromat for his own scheme.

This graphic novel made me think of the saying a picture is worth a thousand words, because a lot of the panels were just images showing how the characters were feeling, yet speaking volumes. I truly felt for the characters when they were down, worried, depressed, and happy anytime they expressed joy. Outside of the ridiculous scheme the slimey character had, most of this book does a great job looking in to the hardships of a family after a death, of not feeling accepted in school or by peers.

I definitely have to recommend this one. Now I need to go hug a ghost!
