I’m thinking of ending things. Once this thought arrives, it stays. It sticks. It lingers. It’s always there. Always.
Jake once said, “Sometimes a thought is closer to truth, to reality, than an action. You can say anything, you can do anything, but you can’t fake a thought.”
And here’s what I’m thinking: I don’t want to be here.

Won't say it's a bad book, but I wish I hadn't read it.

Content warning This review contains spoilers.
The ending wasn't entirely a surprise by the time I got there, but I can't say I enjoy reading about psychotic people killing themselves, or psychosis being used as horror story material. I still have lots of questions, but the ending makes me too uncomfortable to think about the possible answers.
