Friends with Boys

Written by Faith Erin Hicks.
Published in 2012 by First Second.

After years of homeschooling, Maggie is starting high school. It’s pretty terrifying.  Maggie’s big brothers are there to watch her back, but ever since Mom left it just hasn’t been the same. Besides her brothers, Maggie’s never had any real friends before. Lucy and Alistair don’t have lots of friends either. But they eat lunch with her at school and bring her along on their small-town adventures.

    I think this book was the best one to read because I have friends that are boys too. And i do know how she feels when her brothers tell her not to hang out with the boys she hangs out with.

    Graphic novel about a young girl who becomes haunted by a ghost. Adequate illustrations and unexciting plot!
