From the author of 27 and No F***ing Clue and (Modern) Life of the Hopeless Romantic It's a novel. It's a self-help book. It's a breakdown disguised as both. If you've ever overanalyzed a text, replayed a conversation five times in the shower, or spiraled over nothing-and also everything-this is for you. Okay... so I'm supposed to be writing the back cover copy. Cool. Easy. Except it's not that easy-because technically, this is a book about anxiety... But also maybe a novel. Or a self-help book? Or a breakdown disguised as both. It's hard to say, really. Here's what I can tell you: There's Zak...
From the author of 27 and No F***ing Clue and (Modern) Life of the Hopeless Romantic It's a novel. It's a self-help book. It's a breakdown disguised as both. If you've ever overanalyzed a text, replayed a conversation five times in the shower, or spiraled over nothing-and also everything-this is for you. Okay... so I'm supposed to be writing the back cover copy. Cool. Easy. Except it's not that easy-because technically, this is a book about anxiety... But also maybe a novel. Or a self-help book? Or a breakdown disguised as both. It's hard to say, really. Here's what I can tell you: There's Zak-an overthinker with the unique ability to ruin a perfectly normal interaction by imagining the worst-case scenario and then mentally living it all the way to the end. Then, there's Ava-composed, controlled, and quietly trained in chaos, handling her anxiety with precision instead of panic, but still carrying it with her everywhere she goes. And, of course, there's me... because, let's be honest, this book isn't not about me either. It starts off simple enough. Then it gets complicated. Then it sort of... derails. But like, on purpose. It's not what you think. Or maybe it is. Honestly, it's hard to tell anymore. But it might be exactly what you need. from This Is a Book About Anxiety "This book? It's going to be a self-help book disguised as a novel that's also making fun of self-help books while maybe helping you but more so probably just for entertainment. Confused? Good. Me too." "Am I supposed to be like, 'yeah I was texting in my group chat with my buddies when I was supposed to be working and we were talking about how planes aren't real and then my buddy sent me a f**king twerk video and I watched it 50 times over and probably got a half chub and then this f**ker from HR walked past me and saw what I what I was watching and then went to my boss and told-" "The candlelight from the bedroom threw botanical shadows across the wall like 'What if a jungle f**ked a Pottery Barn?'" "Zak fights every thought like it's a war. Ava? She spots them, deals with them, and lets them float past. That's the difference." Welcome to the spiral. This is the kind of book that doesn't fit in a category. Part fiction, part accidental self-help, and part chaotic therapy session you didn't sign up for-This Is a Book About Anxiety is a genre-bending, fourth-wall-breaking, emotionally reckless deep dive into what happens when overthinking stops being funny and starts feeling real. With a structure that mirrors anxiety itself-unpredictable, spiraling, secretly intentional-it's the kind of story that pulls you in before you realize it's about you, too. If you've ever felt too much, too little, too fast, too late-or all of it at once-you're not broken. You're just in the middle of a sentence. About the Author Vince Kelly is a thirty-something San Diego dude who has spent most of his life overthinking everything from career choices to text bubbles. He didn't set out to write a book about anxiety-it just kind of happened. Between the spirals, the sarcasm, and the accidentally personal breakdowns, he somehow ended up here. And honestly? It tracks.
