Did anyone read it? It's the story about four people who want to comit suicide on New Years eve. Unfortunately they have all chosen the same place to do it.
I have just finished reading it.
While reading it I never knew if I should feel sad or laugh.
The characters and the whole story seem to be a bit surreal and at the same time, when you think about it, so realistic.
But it's the same feeling I had when I was reading "About a boy", it's just stronger this time.
Anyway, a fantastic book which is definitely worth reading.

Nadine, I think they didn't translate the titles, so it should be the same here. But I don't know for sure - I read them in english.

You know, it's interesting to see how you can be "bad" when you try to be "good". (If you read it, then you will understand what I say. wink.gif )
