I thought the illustrations were really nice and clever but the fears seemed at times to be reaching for cleverness and absurdity instead of real fears… but who am I to judge what people are afraid of.

This graphic novel was a hilarious exploration of irrational fears. The art was simple but perfectly expressed the absolute comedy and particular terror that comes with thoughts like:
Fear #24: "Every time I tell someone 'I love you,' my soul is split in half. I worry that someday, I'll have none left."
or
Fear #82: "I worry that, at my funeral, nobody will have good stories or nice things to say."
or my personal favorite
Fear # 42: "When I was little, I wasn't allowed to watch 'Dracula', because it was too scary. At night I'd still have nightmares, where Dracula was a big robot, because I had no idea what a 'dracula' was."
This graphic novel was really funny, but I also connected uncomfortably well with some of these fears. It had an almost grounding effect in that it made me feel like I wasn't so alone.
I recommend this for fans of Final Destination, the Sunday funnies, and thinking about mortality.

I'd seen some of these online, so I was delighted to receive this as a Christmas present. I'm sure all readers will not only share at least one (or many more of these fears) but will gain some new ones they had not previously considered!
