This is part two of The Name of the Star, which I really liked. I thought this would be a good book to read on Halloween, but I almost wish it had been scarier. There was only one scary ghost and that part didn't last long enough. 
 The main character, Rory, has the ability to get rid of ghosts, and that keeps the plot interesting; I just didn't buy that she agreed to run away and live with her new therapist all of a sudden, and I knew something was up with that therapist. The end is a big cliff hanger.
