Welcome to Litsy!

This is not for everyone as it deals with a group of strangers who want to end their lives and take a road trip to do so, but if that‘s not a trigger, this audio is really well done. I found it on a list of best audiobooks (it‘s full cast). I really appreciated the discussion around suicide: the various reasons, who gets to decide and judge the reasons. Why is this suicide illegal but that one isn‘t. There were laughs to be had as well.

This is a crazy wild ride that may be triggering for some as it‘s about a group of strangers on a suicide mission. Each of them has either physical or mental issues that are revealed on this journey. But connections are made and isn‘t that what LIFE is really all about! Yes, it‘s bittersweet but lovely!

Sadly not for me. At all. I liked the sound of the unique premise, but I found it clunky and strangely shallow, which was a surprise. I usually love an epistolary novel but this just felt contrived. The MC was kind of insufferable, and the few characters I was drawn to, were not enough to save this one for me. I‘d hoped for more. Disappointed.

Along the journey and for the price of the ride, they must upload journal entries relating their stories. Second, I didn‘t agree with a lot of the political ideals/posturing of the story, and the language 🔻
