This books handles some heavy subjects ... depression, suicide, abandonment. Clementine has been through a lot, and she's done. Despite that, there was quite a bit of humor, and a lot of sexual stuff. It kept my interest. Honestly though, I wasn't sure about the ending. I think I was listening to it at night and I was tired, and then it was done and ... what happened? And I had to listen again, and same thing? Something about it (maybe just bad timing) was knocking me out! So dedicated relisten, and I think I was still confused. Some SPOILERS ... When Jenny calls, the author never tells the reader the situation, you have to figure it out (it's not that hard, Jenny has been exposed to HIV). Then there is one moment where Jenny says to Clementine "take me with you" and I wondered if the meant that (as in the suicide, a similar situation to the mom/Ramona). It almost would have been poetic. It is an interesting situation. I know the majority of people are 100% against suicide, but ... probably too intense for a book club discussion even.
