Happy 2012!

Ahoy Ghosters!

Here we are in a new year and ready to read.

I have been trying to find a list of  Top Ten Books that are supposed to be 'must reads' for us to tackle in 2012, but after slogging through a dozen lists, (none of which agreed on even one book!), I have come to the conclusion that whatever book you read and like is a MUST READ.

There are thousands, if not gazillions, of novels for young people - some good, some not-so-much. 
The final decision is yours.

Deciding what is right for you and standing up for that choice is an important step in growing into the kind of person I would like as a shipmate.  This goes even if no one else agrees with you. 
That was one of the characteristics I loved about Ailish - she didn't desert her friends, no matter how bleak things looked.

Food for thought as we set sail into 2012.
