Everyone in This Room Will Someday Be Dead (Export)

3.5

As much as I related to Gilda's death anxieties, I also found her deeply frustrating.

An instant classic! Perhaps one of the most insightful, well-written, and fundamentally human books to have ever graced by shelf! I cried, I laughed, and I simply felt on every single page. Austin has captured the incredible confusion of being alive at all angles, from the depressing to the uplifting and everything in between. The characters are rich and engaging, our protagonist is relatable as heck (I for one had experienced say about 98% of everything she did; I'm even a lesbian to top it all off, though I believe there is something for everyone, straight, religious, or otherwise to experience and learn from this stupendous read), and the story is fast-paced and does not overstay its welcome. A must-read! For who? For everyone! Grab it and go! It may just change your view on life. Who knows, it changed mine.
