Love, Ghosts & Nose Hair [Paperback] Herrick, Steven

**Love, Ghosts & Nose Hair by Steven Herrick - Because Growing Up is Weird Enough Without the Supernatural**

Jack's got problems. His dad's acting strange, his crush doesn't know he exists, and oh yeah—there's a ghost hanging around his house offering unsolicited life advice. Welcome to adolescence, supernatural edition.

This brilliantly awkward coming-of-age tale tackles the messy realities of being fourteen: first crushes, family drama, and those mortifying bodily changes nobody warns you about. Herrick masterfully blends humor with heart, exploring themes of grief, growing up, and learning to navigate relationships when you can barely navigate your own reflection.

Perfect for middle-grade readers (ages 10-14) who appreciate stories that don't talk down to them, plus nostalgic adults who remember when nose hair was the least of their worries. Award-winning Australian author Steven Herrick delivers another gem in this contemporary fiction that proves young adult literature can be both hilarious and profound.

This preloved paperback from Patina Paperbacks is ready for its next adventure.
