87) Brosgol, Vera. ANYA'S GHOST. First Second; London-New York: 2011.
Graphic Novel.
Anya's Ghost addresses many issues current teenagers face today; teasing and bullying, the desire to fit in, peer pressure, academic pressure, smoking and drinking, body image and self confidence, love, dating, and family dynamics. This fun, slightly dark, and yet comical ghost story is packed full of commentary with a backdrop of an immigrant trying to fit in at a private high school. The artwork style is truly creative (and I like the black-grey-purple colour tones). This was Brosgol's first book, although recently she was a storyboard artist on the movie Coraline.
