Wishlist Wednesday: Anya's Ghost


On my wishlist this fine Wednesday morning:

Vera Brosgol
Expected Publication: June 7, 2011
from First Second
Anya could really use a friend. But her new BFF isn’t kidding about the “Forever” part . . .
Of all the things Anya expected to find at the bottom of an old well, a new friend was not one of them. Especially not a new friend who’s been dead for a century.
Falling down a well is bad enough, but Anya’s normal life might actually be worse. She’s embarrassed by her family, self-conscious about her body, and she’s pretty much given up on fitting in at school. A new friend—even a ghost—is just what she needs.
Or so she thinks.
Spooky, sardonic, and secretly sincere, Anya’s Ghost is a wonderfully entertaining debut from author/artist Vera Brosgol.


Do you see my face?  This face right here, can you feel it through the computer?  Because this is my creepily intent face.  My Gollum face, if you will.   I need this book.  My precioussss...  
How excellent does it sound? I've been in a graphic novel mood anyway, and this one sounds RIGHT up my alley.  And did you catch the blurb from Neil Gaiman?  Generally, I could give a shit less about blurbs, but that one certainly caught my eye.
What say you?  Anyone else dying (nyuck, nyuck) for some Anya's Ghost?
What are you wishing for?
