"I'm Thinking of Ending Things is one of the best debut novels I've ever read. Iain Reid has crafted a tight, ferocious little book, with a persistent tenor of suspense that tightens and mounts toward its visionary, harrowing final pages" (Scott Heim, award-winning author of Mysterious Skin and We Disappear).
You will be scared. But you won’t know why…
I’m thinking of ending things. Once this thought arrives, it stays. It sticks. It lingers. It’s always there. Always.
Jake once said, “Sometimes a thought is closer to truth, to reality, than an action. You can say anything, you can do anything, but you can’t fake a thought.”
And here’s what I’m thinking: I don’t want to be here.
In this smart, suspenseful, and intense literary thriller, debut novelist Iain Reid explores the depths of the human psyche, questioning consciousness, free will, the value of relationships, fear, and the limitations of solitude. Reminiscent of Jose Saramago’s early work, Michel Faber’s cult classic Under the Skin, and Lionel Shriver’s We Need to Talk about Kevin, I’m Thinking of Ending Things is an edgy, haunting debut. Tense, gripping, and atmospheric, this novel pulls you in from the very first page…and never lets you go.
感觉前面铺垫有点长 让我一直没办法沉浸进来 刚觉得有点意思 又开始神游 但是从回父母家到最后基本是一口气看完的 那一大串重复的问句太帅了原来惊悚和恐怖还是不同的
评分还行 一个人在车里看这个书的时候吓得够呛。。。。需要再读一遍才能懂 但是我不准备再读本书了 吓人!
评分挺好读也挺絮叨的。前半部分很吓人,有两个恐怖的点,读到第一个时还想“啊好俗套的都市传说”,第二个就真的吓出了鸡皮疙瘩,遗憾的是这两个点并未得到解答,就只是个莫名其妙的噱头而已。故事最后的转折挺突然,那几页密密麻麻的“What are you waiting for?”营造了很强的错乱氛围。最终的谜底不算是个好的处理,有点失望,但读完再重头看,又觉得挺难过,原来这是一个关于孤独的故事。挺适合拍成电影的。等考夫曼的成片。

评分3.75/5 Unpredictable and increasingly bizarre, Iain Reid's literary debut defies, distorts and warps the reality as we know it, determined to take the reader on a wild ride. Evocative of Ishiguro's Pale View of Hill, the plot is so smartly constructed but its smartness might've tempered with the delivery of the final reveal which seemed confusing.
