Blurb (from back cover): "Twenty-four-year old Veronika seems to have enverything-youth and beauty, boyfriends and a loving family, a fulfilling job. but something is missing in the her life. So, one cold November morning Veronika decides to die. She takes a handful of sleeping pills expecting never to wake up. but she does-at a mental hospital where she is told that she has only days to live."
Opinion; I had gotten this title from the 1001 books you should read before you die list that was put out recently. It hit a little too close to home as I've experienced similar things as Veronika has. For that reason, it was important to read it.
