TW: Suicide attempts Following the story of Richard and Rikki was a ride. Nonetheless, I really enjoyed it. At first I didn't know where the story would take me, but I didn't get disappointed. At around the half, I read it in one go. There is action and a deep topic that the story is build on. What I also enjoyed a lot is the book giving you a lot of room for interpretation. The main character Richard is the main character, who develops a second head, who identifies as Rikki. For me, Rikki symbolised depression. All the anger at the world and this rationality and hopelessness. Suffering from depression myself, Richard and Rikki resonated with me. It's like those two personalities inside of you, one that is nice and the person everyone knows and the other full of anger and self-dustructiveness in a way. I know what that feels like. But the transformation he has along the story shows growth. My reading experience I had a little trouble putting the story in what time it took place. But it didn't decrease the joy I had reading. The story really sucked me in and there were some dialogue scenes that made me laugh. Some parts seemed a little unrealistic for me, but that might be because I am outside of the targeted age group. And although I normally don't cry at books, this ending really got me as I lost my grandfather too almost two years ago and couldn't properly say goodbye. So props for that. Conclusio The book is best suited for a younger audience; approx. 12 - 16. It is a story packed with action and anger, a good story arch, and relatable characters. All in all a good book, highlighting the importance of friendships and how hard it can be to say farewell.
