Title: Haunting and scary....
Product review: I've always been an optimist, despite experiences with anxiety and depression. I've also always believed that when people are incurably sick they should have the right to end their lives the way they want, when they want. I'd never really thought about people that were mentally ill, but after reading this book I was stunned and speechless. If the main character where my friend I would have no idea what to say or do. The author does such a frighteningly good job of conveying the emptiness and inability to attach to anyone or anything that I could think of no other way for the book to end. I kept waiting for something to change, some magic intervention and it didn't come. And although I was sad, I was also profoundly respectful of an author that could not only make me feel for this character but didn't insult the book with a slap-dash happy ending. I didn't see this book coming. It's not really about depression, it's about meaninglessness. This book took a while to shake off.
