Daphne by Josh Malerman
4.0
Daphne is about basketball, thoughts, anxiety, and a ghost story.
Kit and her friends are having a sleepover before their big basketball game where one of them tells a ghost story about Daphne who may have been murdered. The story can't be real...can it?
Daphne is a really interesting book as it deals a lot with anxiety. Anyone with anxiety should be able to relate to Kit. You also don't need to like basketball to enjoy this one. It's a part of the story, but more a side part. Daphne herself is a great villain and creates a scary image. The book is violent, but not really graphic more describing the after effects of the kills and not in great detail. I liked this one a lot.
If you've dealt with anxiety and been scared by a ghost story told late at night, you'll probably like this one.
