What would you do with an eternity of self reflection and the inability to die for more than one day before resurrecting in bed? This wasn't just dark, but disturbingly reflective. 

Edit: I've changed from 4 stars to 5 stars because this book has stuck with me. I think about it regularly, it lingers in the back of my head waiting to cleave whatever good mood I had.
