What a great rhythm this story has! It's so easy to settle into its curious melody, where the character's are humming along to their own 'eccentric' tunes.

Each member of the Solar family appears to have a unique anxiety and, although these may seem peculiar to others, the manner in which they tolerate/process their individual foibles is spectacularly brilliant.

Be it social situations, extreme superstition, or just being afraid of the dark, there's a sense that their candid fears are being played down by comedic deflection at every opportunity.

Through various situation flukes and a heap of quick wit I have a feeling that Esther and co. are sure to deliver an amazing read!

I'd be curious to know just how 'The Semi-Definitive List of Worst Nightmares' is applied in practice, and also to discover the meaning behind that rather striking and highly memorable cover.
