In this deeply scary and intensely unnerving debut novel, Jake and a woman known only as "The Girlfriend" are on a drive to visit his parents at their secluded farm. But when Jake leaves "The Girlfriend" stranded at an abandoned high school, what follows is a twisted unraveling of the darkest unease, an exploration into psychological frailty, and an ending as suspenseful as The Usual Suspects and as haunting as Misery.
Deeply scary and intensely unnerving, Iain Reid's debut novel is a tightening spiral of a story about a woman's uncertainty of her relationship with her boyfriend, Jake. After an uncomfortable and confusing trip to meet Jake's parents at their isolated farmhouse, reality unravels, and events spin out of control when Jake and "The Girlfriend" make an unscheduled stop at an abandoned high school.
Part murder mystery, part psychological thriller, I'm Thinking of Ending Things is about doubt, psychological fragility, and the lengths we'll go to avoid the truth. As twisted as Shutter Island, as suspenseful as Under the Skin, and as atmospheric as The Sisters Brothers, Reid's breakout literary thriller is sure to keep listeners guessing until the last minute.

Geschichte
In Iain Reid’s second haunting, philosophical puzzle of a novel, set in the near future, Junior and Henrietta live a comfortable, solitary life on their farm, far from the city lights, but in close quarters with each other. One day, a stranger from the city arrives with alarming news: Junior has been randomly selected to travel far away from the farm...very far away. The most unusual part? Arrangements have already been made so that when he leaves, Henrietta won't have a chance to miss him, because she won't be left alone - not even for a moment.

Twenty-five years ago, Maggie Holt and her parents, Ewan and Jess, moved into Baneberry Hall, a rambling Victorian estate in the Vermont woods. Three weeks later they fled in the dead of night, an ordeal Ewan later recounted in a nonfiction book called House of Horrors. His horror memoir of ghostly happenings and encounters with malevolent spirits became a worldwide phenomenon, rivaling The Amityville Horror in popularity — and skepticism.

A dinner party is held in the penthouse of a multimillion-pound development. All the guests are strangers - even to their host, the billionaire owner of the building. None of them know why they were selected to receive his invitation. Besides a postcode, they share only one thing in common - they've all experienced an unsettling occurrence within the building's walls. By the end of the night, their host is dead, and none of the guests will say what happened. His death remains one of the biggest unsolved mysteries - until now.

After receiving a frantic letter from her newly-wed cousin begging for someone to save her from a mysterious doom, Noemí Taboada heads to High Place, a distant house in the Mexican countryside. She’s not sure what she will find - her cousin’s husband, a handsome Englishman, is a stranger, and Noemí knows little about the region. Noemí is also an unlikely rescuer: She’s a glamorous debutante, and her chic gowns and perfect red lipstick are more suited for cocktail parties than amateur sleuthing. But she’s also tough and smart, with an indomitable will, and she is not afraid.

Sadly as underwhelming as the movie
After all the hype surrounding the movie, we watched it a couple of months ago and were incredibly disappointed – it clearly considered itself to be quite deep and clever, while not really diving below the surface of any subject and instead resorting to name-dropping of other, better writers and thinkers. Digging around online, I saw that many who loved the book felt similarly let down by the movie, so I gave it a try myself. However, I don’t feel that the original boasts any layer of depth beyond what we’ve seen on screen. Many of the narrator’s supposedly deep or eye-opening thoughts and ideas revolve around subjects and reach conclusions that any introspective person is likely to have reached on their own at some point in their life. And perhaps that’s one reason for this story’s popularity – it pleasantly tickles the ego to find one’s own, often mundane ideas presented as deeply philosophical and deserving of artistic representation. A story that can offer neither an engaging plot nor any new concepts or ideas feels like a waste of my time.
As an aside, I am heartily sick of horror/thriller stories whose frightening element can be summed up as “mental illness”.
What I will give this is that I enjoyed Candace Thaxton’s performance.

Great story
After I watched the movie I had to check out the source. The book added a lot to the over all experience.
The story really sticks with you I'm still thinking about its true meaning. There is a lot of subtext to discover.
