review 1: I know when I read something by C.V. Hunt I'm never going to be disappointed. From vampires to werewolves, from funeral homes and zombies, I've enjoyed an array of her work including a love poem that was included in a love notes anthology earlier this year.Upon first glance at the title and cover of her new work, How To Kill Yourself, like many that will suspect, I thought she was about to take stab at the rebellious punk teen generation. This novella doesn't even come close.We first meet a junkie who is about to have her dead hand removed, only to end up in a dystopian-like dream world, eventually descending into Hell and transforming into a dark angel. From here, we come across God telling Jesus he's giving up on the world because no one believes in him anyway.Death and ... more"Diavol" are having a lover's quarrel. And the book closes with the dark angels battling it out for the rights to Purgatory and Hell. Hunt treats each of the deadly sins as unique anthropomorphic beings, and even gives Suicide a voice of her own (along with a bright hair color).Like other reviewers, my biggest complaint is that the story is too short - only 86 pages in paperback form. Hunt's sarcasm and dark humor shine through, ultimately leaving the reader wanting and asking for more.Devout Christians will definitely be offended, but not being afraid to offend is definitely one trait that makes C.V. Hunt a great and honest writer.
review 2: A book on Earth, Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory. The struggle of the powers that be, and I must say I did enjoy the humor. A quick and very fun read. I only had a little issue with the writing style. Over all I really enjoyed the book and recommend it highly to others.This books is a quick and interesting read, this now being the second time I have read it, I had less issues with the writing style. I vastly enjoyed this book. less
