Something to Live for by Richard Roper
4.0
So here's the thing about this book: I had to skim a chunk of it.
But not because the book is bad, but rather, because of the themes it talks about. It deals a lot with death, loneliness, and mental illness, so a lot of the "heavier" details just made me depressed.
However, the main plot line for the main character was genuinely good, and I quite enjoyed the author's writing style. I'd definitely recommend this book for the story alone, but you need to prepare yourself for the sad themes or you may be turned off by it.
