Ghost Wood Song by Erica Waters
4.0
This book attacked my mandolin-playing queer self on a personal level (I say this with so much love). Music does have a power greater than death- I lost both my grandfathers early in life and it does feel like I could maybe summon their ghosts when I play their old sheet music. Erica Waters taps into that feeling- I teared up at Shady's descriptions of how playing made her feel near to her father.
This story reminded me of Horrid, in a good way- some hurting, tough as nails ladies with dark family history trying to come into their own despite the ghosts.

Also-
The angst and awkwardness between Shady and the female component of her love triangle (bi-love triangles are a gift to YA) was just too real.
Read this if you like: spooky Florida stories, bluegrass, LGBTQANGST, modern gothics
I really enjoyed this book and read it so quickly- very excited that I have an ARC for The River Has Teeth.
