Who knew that a short story about a weird, misanthropic accordion player could be so entertaining?

Valerie spends all her time daydreaming about her exes playing together in a jazz band. As I dislike most jazz and hate dream sequences, I was pretty sure this book wasn't going to go well for me. As it progresses, Valeries reflects on her relationships with the men one by one, showing us that they were pretty uniformly stupid and/or awful and certainly not worth a second thought once dumped. As I reflected on Valerie, I realized she was no catch herself and certainly not worth much thought on my part.

So, so, so not for me.

This book was a little hard to get into at first, but I must admit that I really did enjoy the book. This was quite the story, with plenty of paranormal themes and mystery. This follows teenager Barry Dyer and a ghost (nicknamed Petal) as they travel to the future in an effort to prevent some unknown danger. At the same time, a murder has happened in present time to a local girl and it plays a big role in the overall story. It is definitely an interesting and exhilarating story.
