A Long Way Down by Nick Hornby

Who thought a book on suicide could be funny! This book is about 4 people who meet on top of a building in London and form a sort of bond. They are up there to kill themselves. Needless to say they meet each other and don't jump. I have to say the 18 year old girl Jess is hysterical! She had me laughing out loud. Her first introduction to the first two up there were so funny, everytime I think of it, I laugh. She just wanted acceptance but would come out with some whacky things!

This was a book club book and I really enjoyed it. Although the ending wasn't much of an ending.

Grade: B
