As Depressing as it gets. I would seriously consider to only read the book when there is a person to comfort you afterwards. The first half of the book, as you watch the friends try to figure out more about Jude,  had me hooked. Somehow though, the book lost me in the second half. Overall, I still enjoyed the writing a lot but I was missing a greater conclusion. I don’t know if I will remember this book in a few years. And thats how I consider a great book.
