Phobia by A.L. Woods
5.0
Phobia is a perfectly spooky and haunting anthology that I could not get enough of. Listed below are my favorite entries in this fantastic anthology.
Mortem Obire by Ashlyn Drewek brings you back into the Tennenbrose world. In this story, you follow best friends Jamie and Larkin. They have been best friends since they were thirteen and are completely devoted to one another. The friendship and devotion between these two was my favorite aspect of the story. It really made me root for these guys, especially when they had so much to overcome.
Overall I loved this thrill ride from beginning to end. I loved how I never really knew where this story would go and was pleasantly surprised throughout, especially with all of the character reveals. Together Jamie and Larkin go through so much in their story. I love how they worked together and faced their demons while remaining true to one another. Such a fantastically spooky story!!
Mask of Malice by Michaela Cole is a perfectly dark thrilling "romance." This story follows Zane and Graysin as they experience quite a dangerous encounter with one another. Zane is a complicated character who is recovering from his grief after losing a family member. Graysin is working towards healing from past trauma and moving forward with his life. They are brought together through tragedy while playing quite a dangerous game.
I loved how I never really knew where this story was going. I was thrown for quite a loop while reading the last chapter to the point that I reread this story again and had such a great experience after a certain reveal. Loved the dangerous atmosphere throughout this story and genuinely feared for Graysin, he is a strong character who really proved himself.
No Sleep by Nyla K is a fantastic thrilling romance between Asa, who has such a heartbreaking backstory, and his new neighbor Jules who comes into his life at the perfect moment to help Asa heal and recover from his intense trauma.
Together they both go on such a journey, where we meet unique side characters while maintaining such an eerie atmosphere throughout this haunting story. Loved it so much and cannot wait to see these characters again.
