I want to preface this by saying that this is my favorite book ever. And while I want to keep what I say purely neutral and universal, that is obviously impossible. So before you read this one only to be disappointed by what you get, I want to clear some things up: I enjoy anything 'slow-burn', I enjoy stories that are slow paced, I enjoy stories that are character driven. I love stories that are darker and I can overlook a story being mostly introspection if the central themes and ideas are interesting enough. If you read anything I said above and thought I was crazy, you probably won't enjoy this book. But, if you have similar taste, I can not recommend "I Am Thinking of Ending Things" enough.
