shot this about 2 hours before the deadline - seems to be a trend with me lately. at least i'm posting this one up with more than a minute to spare...
i took about 20 pics in the freezing cold and this one seemed to carry the title the best. went into photoshop, tweaked the color and used a bit of the old gaussian blur on her to get the ethereal, ghost-like feeling.

nice subject for the book title, it suits well. I think the shadows would look better if they were a little lighter, and I would prefer the shot without the head cropped off.
I like the composition, tones, and soft look you've acheived here. My only small suggestion is it would be nice to have a little more shadow detail, though it would be important to also not overexpose the wall.
