Tori (Victoria, Mui Mui) is from a traditional Chinese family, although they live in Toronto. She has moved downtown, dropped out of school and is working in a bookstore. She is trying to find out who she wants to be, what she wants to be and have some fun. Her parents want her to go back to school and become a doctor. This is her internal fight as well. It is Yu-Lan (Festival of the Hungry Ghosts) and she is suddenly being haunted, not only by her dead older brother Seymour (Goh Goh) but by her younger self at 11 (Mui Mui) and 18 (Vicky). As she struggles against her Chinese culture, she deals with an arm going numb and losing control of it, Vicky playing stunts like turning off her alarm, and Seymour causing issues at the store where she works. Tori has to deal with what she really wants in life in order to rid herself of the ghosts. This book taught me a lot about Chinese Culture, but it was just not something that I really was able to get interested in. Those who enjoy stories about Ghosts (particularly ones from your own life) and spiritual things happening to you would probably enjoy this book much more than I did.I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
