The book is interestingly witty and antagonistic. It revolves around the four people that created a suicide pact that delays their plan of suicide. It worked, though it seemed to have worked too fast and well. the characters are complicated to like, there are times the flaw aren't the focus nor did it highlight the character's traits. It seemed to just fill the air.
Despite that, the book had a lot of philosophical (though, twisted) view about life. It was simply, take it as it is and move on. I like how the character's didn't have a large development but there was a hint of beginning to, or it turning it around, which i think, is what matters the most. Giving hope.

„ He's at the chocolate teapot end of the competency scale.“
I don‘t think I ever read a book with a maine character as unlikeable as Martin. Tbh I didn’t really like the others too. That made it a real pain to get trough this one. I guess maybe that was intentional.
The idea behind this book was pretty promising. But I just didn’t really like the execution.
