A Semi-Definitive List of Worst Nightmares

This book was fine. The constant pop culture references were pretty distracting and won't age well. The characters were very well drawn, even enchanting, and I loved the imagry of the house. That being said, the plot itself was just okay. I felt a bit of whiplash being thrust back and forth from “it's magic!” and “there's no such thing as magic” often several times a page. I also couldn't relate to the main character's anxiousness (and I say this as someone who takes medication everyday for my own anxiety) and I felt like the book glorified senseless thrill seeking over actual courage.

uno de los mejores en representar la personalidad de personas con enfermedades mentales

este ibro es como hizo sentir vergüenza ajena de una manera tan palpable y sonora como lo hice esta vez, tuve que bajar mi celular (donde estaba leyendo), taparme la cara y básicamente soltar de esos gritos/chillidos sin mucho sonido... Así como un pterodáctilo.

A Semi-Definitive List of Worst Nightmares es un libro divertido, que toca de manera real lo que es vivir con ansiedad, depresión, sobre lo que es vivir en una familia con predisposición a enfermedades mentales.

This book is so much more than what I was expecting.

What an amazing cast of characters. And the way it deals with such tough subjects without turning too dark and while still being powerful is just perfect.

It was a little hard to get into this in the beginning, but once I got into it, I really got into it!!! This is a beautiful portrayal of mental illnesses, with a bit a humor mixed in here and there!!!
