Daphne by Josh Malerman
4.0

4.5⭐️ This book is brilliant! The metaphors of anxiety woven into a real life horror story for this town is so smart and impactful. Daphne a legendary tale/ghost story for this town and yet is very real and present in so many ways. This book made me feel anxious while reading it while also putting into words perfectly how anxiety feels. I was invested in the story and I know this book will stay with me for a long time.

I knocked off half a star because this book has ZERO chapters. Maybe that was purposeful to add to the anxiety of this book? I’m not sure but it made the reading experience difficult but also one I’ll remember.
