I wasn’t sure what to expect from this book, but I found it utterly delightful. The characters were all fleshed out and it was so refreshing to read a book that doesn’t shy away from talking about suicide and the kind of deep depression that leads to it. At the same time it was funny, and even ended on a hopeful note.
