4.0

How Not to Die Alone brings the reader along in contemplating the role of the lonely in society through Andrew's experiences with work, family, and friends. Call it, Dear Evan Hansen meets Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine. Roper's debut novel is endearing, and the story is unique. The pacing and writing kept me intrigued as I got closer to discovering why exactly Andrew struggled with his particular blunder.
