This was a nice, quick, and enlightening read. It was lovely and well-written prose that flowed very well and I thoroughly enjoyed it too. It's a story about a girl, a biracial Jewish girl, llana, who's an artist and wants to play music. She loves music more than anything and wants to be a violinist, but her parents want her to have a more stable career to fall back on so she can take care of herself and everything.
She is sent to live with her aunt in Prague to see what it's like to live as an artist and while she's there she finds an old run-down and forgotten cemetery behind her aunt's cottage. She meets the ghost of a boy who died years ago and introduces her to the side of life there in Prague where the ghosts walk the streets. She also meets and is found to be of interest by another ghost and has to help the ghost of the boy, Benjamin along with figuring things out for herself with life and everything. It's an enchanting tale of love, loss, and life written in verse and I loved it. I would recommend checking it out if you're a fan of poetry, prose, novels in verse, supernatural, romance between a ghost and a human, figuring out and finding your way in life.
