This book made me question whether I actually have anxiety. I mean I do, and some of what our MC went through was relatable, but man oh man some of it was so far beyond me. Gilda makes a million horrible, misguided choices. Then never even tries to explain herself. I both get it and don't; my personal experience with anxiety has me over explaining constantly and anxious how others perceive me (which does not help me be more clear, at all). I know everyone's journey is different, I just didn't super heavily vibe with this portrayal the way I did with, say, Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine.

The only characters I really liked were Eleanor and Jeff.

It was very good, inquisitive book about life. As someone with mental illness I felt very seen and represented. At times it was hard to read because it felt a little too real

An eclectic, off-beat little book about how we confront (or refuse to confront) the inescapable pains of being a person.

I really enjoyed this book and flew through it. I felt like the portrayal of anxiety/depression was very well written and relatable. I’m looking forward to reading more by this author in the future.

"Vamos a morir todos" de Emily Austin ha sido para mí una lectura que ha resonado profundamente. La novela narra las experiencias de Gilda, una joven que se enfrenta a la ansiedad, la incertidumbre y la búsqueda de su lugar en el mundo. A través de sus vivencias, la autora nos invita a reflexionar sobre temas como la muerte, la religión, la familia, la pareja y la identidad.

Lo que más me ha cautivado de la novela es su capacidad para reflejar con realismo y crudeza las emociones que experimentamos como seres humanos. Gilda se siente vulnerable, insegura y con miedo a lo desconocido. Sus dudas y cuestionamientos me han hecho sentirme acompañado en mis propias batallas internas.

En mi caso, la lectura de esta novela ha sido un catalizador para el crecimiento personal. Me ha permitido ver el avance que he dado durante este año en mi lucha contra mis miedos. 

Recomendación: Si buscas una novela que te haga reflexionar sobre la vida, la muerte y la búsqueda del sentido personal, "Vamos a morir todos" es una excelente elección. Te recomiendo leerla con una mente abierta y dispuesta a enfrentar tus propios miedos.
