This book sounds so much fun! Tackling phobias one at a time with a friend.
Esther's family is all about phobias, her dad hasn't left the basement in six years. In the first chapter Esther's mum can't pick her up from school ever again because a back cat was sat on her car bonnet. Her brother is terrified of darkness and her grandfather has no idea who she is. She meets a boy who used to go to school with her, he robs her in the first few pages of the book which made you think he was a total jerk. But they soon become friends and Jonah challenges her to conquer one phobia a week. This book also brings in mental illness in teenagers and their parents and how the children cope with this.
