Deep Dark Fears by Fran Krause
3.0

*ARC from Netgalley in return for an honest review*

Deep Dark Fears by Fran Krause is a selection/collection of illustrated observations, of sorts, to do with human fears. These relate to various things. Death, illness, childhood concerns, family, ghosts, accidents, loneliness, and more. It's a very quick read, and one of those fun books you can pick up once in a while and have a laugh with. It has some very funny pages, but there is also moments of repetition here too, some of the tales of fears are repeated and begin to feel a little tedious, but I did enjoy this and thought it was a cute coffee table style humour book that would be good for a gift for someone you know in your life who worries about things a lot. The illustrations are nice, and often the funniest part of the stories. It's fun, but not much more than that.
