I'm Thinking of Ending Things
by Iain Reid
dark
reflective
sad
fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
I was enthralled by the female protagonist and whatever "entity" was "haunting" her. The very first lines of the book hook you in and I didn't mind the conversations between the main couple, which were mainly scientific and/or philosophical, in fact, I enjoyed them. I liked how there was this constant feel of dread permeating the atmosphere, which made the thriller aspect more interesting. I had many theories through the short novel and my initial one just by reading the beginning in the end, became true. However, I don't know how to feel about the ending. I like it and at the same time I don't. It was something, for certain.
