What a painful little story. 
 I didn't know if I should rate it 1 or 2 stars. I decided to go with one. Because I truly don't like reading about how people are in pain and how they have lost their purpose of life. It's depressing. I also don't like reading about "two years later" etc. It's my fear - fear of aging, losing time. 
 But it was definitely a better book than the first one, because this one actually had a story. The first book was like an introduction and the second one was the main story. Usually the introduction is few chapters, not a whole book.
