  • I read some book called City People by Elizabeth Topp. It was a kindle unlimited book about a group of kindergarten moms whose kids are trying to get a spot at a prestigious private school. The book opens with one of the moms committing suicide. The story switches perspective from each of the remaining women & the various impacts that the suicide had on them. The last chapter was inevitable as the flashback from the dead mom & what actually happened to her that day. Somehow that chapter was so emotional & it made me “understand” her choice, although not necessarily agree with it. But the story gave me more perspective on suicide & I still think about it from time to time.
