Overview
āPart romance, part ghost story, part Jewish family epic, Rules for Ghosting is a meditation on life, death, and healing that is at turns bitingly funny and deeply moving. Shelly Jay Shore is an immense talent.āāAnita Kelly, author of Love & Other Disasters
Ezra Friedman sees ghosts, which made growing up in a funeral home complicated. It might have been easier if his grandfatherās ghost didnāt give him scathing looks of disapproval as he went through a second, HRT-induced puberty, or if he didnāt have the pressure of all those relativesāliving and deadājudging every choice he makes. Itās no wonder that Ezra runs as far away from the family business as humanly possible.
But when the floor of his dream job drops out from under him and his mother uses the family Passover seder to tell everyone sheās running off with the rabbiās wife, Ezra finds himself back in the thick of it. With his parentsā marriage imploding and the Friedman Family Memorial Chapel on the brink of financial ruin, Ezra agrees to step into his motherās shoes and help out . . . which means long days surrounded by ghosts that no one else can see.
And then thereās his unfortunate crush on Jonathan, the handsome funeral home volunteer . . . who just happens to live downstairs from Ezraās new apartment . . . and the appearance of the ghost of Jonathanās gone-too-soon husband, Ben, who is breaking every spectral rule that Ezra knows.
Because Ben can speak. He can move. And as Ezra tries to keep his family together and his heart from getting broken, he realizes that thereās more than one way to be hauntedāand more than one way to become a ghost.
