Ghost Boys by Jewell Parker Rhodes

2.0

This wasn’t bad, although not exactly what I expected. I thought there would be more interactions with the other “ghost boys” (and why no “ghost girls”?) in addition to Emmet Till. I enjoyed Jerome’s connection to Carlos and his sister and grandmother but the interactions with the police officer’s daughter left me cold. (Admittedly this may be personal bias.)

Obviously I’m not in the target audience but given the subject matter. I found this surprisingly...dull.
