"Lily's Ghosts" by Laura Ruby follows the story of Lily, a teenager who is dragged by her free-spirited mother to live in her ancestral home in Cape May, New Jersey. The house and the town are filled with a history that is very much alive, including a family mystery and a plethora of ghosts. Lily, along with her new friend Vaz, gets involved in unraveling the town's secrets and mysteries, all while navigating through her own personal struggles. The plot is a blend of a slightly spooky, romantic mystery with a twist at the end, presented in a swift but not breakneck pace.
