The spooky, swoony YA debut by BookTok star Rosie Talbot (@Merrowchild) -- the "TikTok Made Me Buy It" sensation dubbed Heartstoppers with ghosts! Perfect for fans of V. E. Schwab and Aiden Thomas. Sixteen-year-old Charlie Frith has problems. His crush is dating someone else, his sisters have glitter-bombed his prosthesis (again), and he's a seer-of-spirits in York, the most haunted city in England, and all his friends are ghosts. To make matters worse, it seems that famous spirits are mysteriously vanishing from York's haunted streets and alleys. Charlie is determined to stay out of it, but Sam, the irritating new seer in town, expects him to track down who -- or what -- is responsible and uncover the dark purpose behind these disappearances. But when one of Charlie's ghostly friends vanishes, he has no choice but to face the shadows -- and his growing feelings for Sam. The boys must be willing to risk it all to save York’s spirits, because this adversary will stop at nothing to complete their devastating plan. Afterlives are at stake, and Charlie is running out of time ...

If you are going to set a book somewhere then visit. It is really inexcusable to get street names wrong or describe areas of a city wrong. Take a research holiday.

York is amazing, and so far I get no sense of that from this book. It's generic England!

I was sold when I saw this duology had been dubbed "Heartstopper with ghosts." A captivating YA debut, deliciously swoonworthy & packed full of frights, unfolds with a ragbag team of seers, friends & an assortment of lively ghosts on the cobbled, haunted streets of York. Love, friendship & loss mixed in with a healthy pinch of mortal peril & adventure is a wonderfully diverse & beautifully written ghost story riddled with twists & turns.

GirlNamedJesse Oh my god it‘s comped to Cemetery Boys AND Heartstopper?! brb buying both immediately. 😂💙 4mo
GirlNamedJesse Not ghost related, but heartwarming in a way that makes me feel like I‘m reading Heartstopper are EL Massey‘s novels. I loved them so much I bought them as ebooks and in print. 💙 4mo
TheIntrovertedDodoBird @GirlNamedJesse Yes!! Isn't it the most PERFECT combination?! Honestly, I'm obsessed!! 3mo
