Everyone in this Room Will Someday Be Dead is Emily Austin’s ingenious answer to Ligotti’s The Conspiracy Against the Human Race. In Gilda, we’re given a complex, depressive, neurotic perspective that shows why we fight nihilism in the face of our own mortality: we must. We have no other alternative. Hilarious, revelatory, and existential, this book is criminally underrated.

This was unlike any book I have ever read. It was so raw and real, scarily so. Anxiety and depression can be so debilitating and this is really shown through Gilda’s character. I need to read the rest of Emily’s books asap.

Impressively accurately like spending a load of time inside the head of someone who is spiralling...but that's not necessarily my idea of a great read? Too real to be funny
