    Ghost World was a cute graphic novel to read for the 24 hour read-a-thon. I watched the movie years ago & always wanted to read the novel but never seemed to get around to it, & right now seemed like the perfect time. If you have a bit of a dark/sarcastic humor you may want to pick it up. I am actually going to look into getting the rest of Daniels Clowes Eightball series it was very different than the surreal sexual mysteries he use to write.

    I have mixed feelings about this book. I thought it was interesting, but wished it went into more detail at the end. It seemed to end abruptly. I did find it amusing and could relate a bit to the story. Overall its a fun, quirky story about teens. I'd recommend checking it out.
