I’m Thinking of Ending Things – Audiobook Online

I’m Thinking of Ending Things is a literary fiction book by author Iain Reid.

In this debut novel, Jake and a woman known only as “Girlfriend” are on their way to visit his parents at their remote farm. Jake leaves “The Girlfriend” stranded at an abandoned high school, what follows is a complicated exploration of the darkest insecurities. An exploration of psychological weakness and a suspenseful ending like The Usual Suspects and haunting like Misery.

Iain Reid’s debut novel is a tight twist of story about a woman’s uncertainty about her relationship with her boyfriend, Jake. After an uncomfortable and confusing trip to meet Jake’s parents at their isolated ranch, reality slowly unravels and events spiral out of control when Jake and “The Girlfriend” make an unscheduled stop at the farm. An abandoned high school.

Part murder mystery, part psychological thriller, I’m thinking about the endings that talk about doubt, fragility, and the length of time we’ll hide from the truth.

This is a good novel. I wanted to write a review because I saw a lot of negative reviews about the confusing novel and about the ending. I think if people aren’t actively trying to solve the mystery being presented to them as they read deeper into the story, then yes, you’ll be in trouble, especially at the end. This story is about thinking, and I think Iain Reid expects us to also think in order to understand the plot. It’s well-paced, suspenseful – and everything comes together at the end if you put your mind to it.

Everyone Jake and his girlfriend see, talk to, and do on their trip have a purpose. Their trip was purposeful and important to the girlfriend in her decision to the question that she had in mind. She was psychologically tested, and we, the readers, found her thinking. Because she doesn’t know everything, we don’t know everything, and doing that is very scary to her.
