Unwilling to simply steal that time from the living, Jenna earns every day she leeches with volunteer work at a suicide prevention hotline.

    Ghosts? Magical Realism? Urban fantasy with witches? Sign me right up.

    Every so often a person needs to read a solid novella. One that has a tidy plot and irresistible premise, ideally. Dusk or Dark or Dawn or Day hit the nail on the head for me in my time of need. If you're the kind of person who binges reality ghost shows and read a lot of Holly Black in their youth, this delightful story by Seanan McGuire might be for you.
