I felt the part in this book that was very disturbing was the part when the main character: Tyler felt comfortable with the thought of suicide. Although it sometimes happen often if a person thinks about death, i don't think that thinking about death as comforting is a good thing. It's not reading a book that is disturbing to me but it is writing this blog that i find disturbing. Actually, i feel kind of weird that i could agree with him in thinking death is comfortable. It is also weird because i can relate on how i feel when i think about suicide; the many, many ways to die without making a mess for others to clean up. It's scary to have some character relate to me but that thought of suicide usually leaves as fast as it came to me; like him.
It is nearly absurd for me to feel a connection between the darkness and people. But i guess life works in many different ways. The part i like best is also the part that makes it feel disturbing, he want to find a a quick, clean, painless way to die and he feels it is soothing as well.
Technically, i feel times when suicide feel comfortable is when it is times that a person feels depressed and sad. I know this from personal experience and suicide sometimes calms a person down back to rational thoughts when a person feels irrational in emotional distress.
(Don't worry, I'm not suicidal or going to commit suicide)
