Reading Ghosts felt like experiencing an existential crisis. I enjoyed some of the relationships in the story - especially Nina and Lola's friendship - but the characters felt overwhelmingly jaded. I can't fault the book for feeling like a very 'real' portrayal of life, expectations and growth. However as a story it was exhausting to read.
