The Ghosts We Keep & Those We Let Go

Seventeen-year-old Emery Jackson thought losing her mother was the hardest thing she'd ever endure—until she started seeing the dead. In her fog-draped coastal town, where the lighthouse looms like a keeper of secrets, the line between the living and the lost is dangerously thin. And Emery? She's caught in the middle. Haunted by the past and burdened with a gift she never asked for, Emery must help restless spirits find peace while learning how to face the ghosts of her own grief. With her loyal best friend Liam at her side, the guidance of a wise bookstore owner, and the unexpected connection of the mysterious new boy, Jax, Emery begins piecing together a truth that could heal—or break—her. But when a chilling figure known only as the Lost Widow emerges, Emery is forced to confront long-buried family secrets that threaten to consume her. To free the spirits, and herself, she must choose: hold on to the pain that's defined her, or find the courage to let go and embrace the possibility of new beginnings. Lyrical, heartfelt, and tinged with the magic of the unseen, The Ghosts We keep & Those We Let Go is a spellbinding coming-of-age story about love, loss, and the healing power of saying goodbye. Perfect for fans of The Ghosts We Keep and A Cuban Girl's Guide to Tea and Tomorrow, this YA contemporary with a twist of magical realism reminds us that sometimes the bravest thing we can do is move forward.
