This is not a Ghost book. It is an amazing book about s boy growing up in a bad neighborhood who suddenly finds a new meaning in life. So far there is only one sequel called Patina, and more are supposed to be coming soon.
Is anyone else putting out so many stellar books so quickly? The author of The Boy in the Black Suit and All American Boys (both 2015) keeps dashing along. — Becca Worthington
An endearing protagonist runs the first, fast leg of Reynolds' promising relay. (Fiction. 10-14) (Kirkus Reviews 8/1/16)
