Catrina and her family are moving to the coast of Northern California because her little sister, Maya, is sick. Cat isn't happy about leaving her friends for Bahía de la Luna, but Maya has cystic fibrosis and will benefit from the cool, salty air that blows in from the sea. As the girls explore their new home, a neighbor lets them in on a secret: There are ghosts in Bahía de la Luna. Maya is determined to meet one, but Cat wants nothing to do with them. As the time of year when ghosts reunite with their loved ones approaches, Cat must figure out how to put aside her fears for her sister's sake -- and her own.
Raina Telgemeier has masterfully created a moving and insightful story about the power of family and friendship, and how it gives us the courage to do what we never thought possible.

Don’t think that this book gives you nightmares, because the title is “Ghosts”. Instead this book is like a realistic book, except the part about the ghosts. The main characters of this book are Catrina(she goes by Cat) and Maya. They move to a new town because they’re dad got a new job there, and also because of Maya’s sickness. Cat finds herself in an unfitted place, while Maya thinks just the opposite. But, difficulty comes and Cat needs to solve almost every problem. To me the solution is the most interesting part of the book.
The sisters move to a new place. It is filled with ghosts (obviously)! What will they do?!!? Freak out? Laugh and love them? I must admit, if you read it, you will be in the surprise of your life!
This book is great! It actually shows a lot of things to us that may happen in real life. Although this isn't actually a true story but, to me it can count as one!
This book was amazing! I love Cat's protection and love for Maya even though she doesn't show it, and Maya's love for Carlos and Ghosts. This graphic novel was so good!
Ghosts was one of her most fantastical book, but felt real at the same time. I can hardly imagine what it would be like to have something that terrible affect someone in your family.
Ghosts is a super great book! Raina Telgemeier has done it again with another "Comic" book story. The backstory is great, considering she's been working on this book for a while. Not the greatest book, but it's a good one.

This was the first book I read by Raina Telgemeier and I LOOOOVED IT!!! Such good graphics and great book that will get you to sit on the edge of your bed. I so recommend Ghostđź‘» to mystery lovers and age 8+
ghosts is about a girl who found out that ghosts are real she goes to this building that is haunted with ghosts i recommend this book to people who like ghosts.
I like how Cat is just trying to protect her sister from things and is always is blamed if something goes wrong. In the end, this helps Cat open up and talk to ghosts.
