This was surprisingly amusing for a story of a group of potential suicides. Since Hornby is a master with dialogue, this book is an excellent choice for an audiobook. Don't select it if you are offended by profanity.

Despite the main subject of suicide, this is a very funny listen. The characters are believable and the reading of the book is very good.

This was a great book to listen to given how much dialogue there is. Loved Hornby's sense of humor and the British accents!

Creative and entertaining, this is a dialogue among four people which begins with each contemplating suicide. We follow this "gang" for months, as they interact and build relationships. An unusual read -- and a worthy experience.
