Whatever you're looking for, you'll find it in this book.
Whatever fear or pain you're experiencing you're not alone, the Buddenbrooks are facing it, too.

Ok, so I only read a little part of it. I love it. I love the characters, I'm really interested, it's well written and all that... BUT I did not finish.
I can't.
Because I like all the characters. And it's "The Decline of a Family". I KNOW they are all going to die and this story ends badly. :'( I don't want to read that. I can't.
Maybe I'll take this up in the future, but right now I can't.
