This book made me cry. It’s sad in a very beautiful way. Short read and the prose helps carry you through the heavy parts. Leaves you reflective of life and death while somehow feel cozy and hopeful. Also cats.

The story is about the main character discovering he has cancer and having to come to terms with that while reflecting on his life. As such, heavy themes like the death of family members or pets as well as terminal illnesses are discussed, most of the time not graphically but at length.nickel_books's review against another edition

This book is a wonderful rumination on relationships, death, our connection to things, and decision-making. When facing death, the main character is offered the opportunity to live for another day in exchange for a worldwide erasure of the devil's choosing. The reader is shown how he makes these decisions - the motivations and what he makes of the consequences - each for a single day of existence. As the "what" becomes "who" could you live without, his calculations ultimately change and so does his fate.

The perspective from Cabbage the cat was bittersweet yet healing. It was difficult to read as someone trying to recover from losing a young cat suddenly and traumatically. But also brought me comfort in many ways. “For you, sir, I would gladly disappear.” 🤍
