Ghost Roast
by Shawneé Gibbs, Shawnelle Gibbs
Ghost Roast is a fun and exciting supernatural type story that all YA/Teen readers will love. Chelsea, our main character, is trying to fit in at school and also navigate the world of the supernatural as she takes a Summer job with her father at his Ghostbusters-esque business, "Ghost Roast". She struggles with many relatable teen issues, such as falling victim to peer pressure and wanting to fit in with her friends at school, while also trying to make time for her crush, who happens to be a handsome young ghost. Not only does this book have an entertaining premise, it also addresses issues pertinent to BIPOC individuals as well (the ghostly spot happens to be a former plantation), and doesn't shy away from them. I think this was such a fun read, with amazing artwork, and great representation. Would definitely recommend for my students, and for anyone who loves a fun, supernatural story!
