"Lucu! Menceritakan kehidupan dua orang remaja putri yang bersahabat. Enid & Becky. Setelah lulus dari SMA, kegiatan mereka 'hanyalah' nonton TV, makan di luar, ngobrolin cowok, mengomentari teman-teman mereka dan orang-orang yang mereka anggap aneh di sekitar mereka. Keputusan Enid untuk menuruti ayahnya agar mengikuti tes masuk kuliah membuat mereka khawatir akan kelangsungan persahabatan mereka. Jika Enid diterima, Enid akan pergi jauh dari kota tempat mereka selama ini tinggal. Persahabatan mereka memang memudar tetapi bukan karena Enid pergi; Enid tidak lolos tes masuk kuliah. Masa remaja berakhir sudah. Berganti menjadi masa dewasa yang sepi dan sedih."

"To say I was underwhelmed by Ghost World, at first, would be an understatment. No. No. I didn't even want to keep reading. I read the first 5 pages and was bored. But I finally picked it back up a month later, with renewed vigor, and actually enjoyed it quite a bit. Maybe it's because I see myself in the characters. I think I'm better than everyone. To the point of being mean and entitled. But there is always the sad truth of growing up. It isn't easy. Other people sometimes have it better. We grow in and out of friendships, and repeat the cycle. We fall in love, but don't know how to say it, etc. Clowes is very good at dealing with the angst and anger of these young characters, and I think that's why I connected with it."

By Erik, Seattle, WA

"Rereading this for at least the second time is like revisiting an old friend. It's not that it necessarily gets better with age. Instead, it simply reminds one of how Clowes was able to take a very simple story - two friends that are forced to grow up a little over the summer after high school and before life really begins - and create his own quirky and signature magic.

Enid is still the wise-cracking quasi-goth/hipster wannabee, and Becky is still frozen in time as her plain Jane girl-next-door best friend. Floating in and out of their lives are the rumored Satanists (who stock up on Lunchables at the grocery store), geeky Melorra, their milquetoast friend and pseudo-crush Josh, among the other oddballs that meander into their lives.

Although the Ghost World movie was a brilliant riff on Clowes' graphic novel - so many of the finer details make their way into the film -- the original still holds up after more than a decade in print. Irreverent, snarky, and jaded, it is still the defining work of one of America's premiere slice-of-life comic book artists. Clowes can cut it like no other."

By Pimpawan, Bangkok, 40, Thailand

"I read it long before this book was listed by my modern literature teacher. Some people might said this is just a normal coming-of-age story, I'd say 'yeah, part of it' because most coming-of-age stories fail to do is to haunting you for long time. Ghost World really could do that. I don't know why it could, but I guess it is because of the cynicism in it and the striking ending of Enid's decision to throw it all. I think there are two kinds of reaction from the readers: either they love it or hate it. Why they love it I think it's the same reason I've describe previously. As for why they hate it, I think it is because it gives them sort of a too good and too bad reaction mixed with the oh-so-true that make them feeling hard to decision whether they should embrass or deny it."
