Has anyone else read these books? They are so beautiful… They really impacted me a lot when I was growing up.
Especially because for many years, I only had the first book! I actually had no idea it was a trilogy until a couple years ago…
If you’ve read the books, you can imagine how much darker the story would be if it just ended after the first one. I was maybe 7 or 8 when I first read it, and the fight club-esque nature of the ending was totally mind-blowing to me. It was absolutely the darkest thing I had ever read at that point, and it made me feel ways about stuff for a long time. It was sad, but also so profound and beautiful.
When I found out there were two more books, I read them as soon as I could. I liked them too.. Honestly though, I kind of preferred the stark ending I had grown up with, where It becomes clear that Griffin is a man descending into loneliness and depression, and that Sabine is a figment of his imagination. The last 2 letters, and the final post script note always gave me goosebumps.
It’s so good! If yall haven’t read these books, I would highly recommend checking them out. And if you do, try reading the first book as a stand-alone story
