This is Bob: A Guide to Not Dying (Mostly)

By Robert McCartney

Bob can't die. He's tried-a lot.

From self-immolation to explosive "patriotic" exits, Bob keeps waking up-alive, bitter, and still stuck in a world he doesn't quite understand. Told through episodic chapters, journal entries, surreal dreams, and razor-sharp observations, This is Bob: A Guide to Not Dying (Mostly) is a darkly comic spiral into the mind of a man who would rather laugh than cry-and a story about what it means to hurt, to heal, and to maybe keep going.

Originally born from a blog that explored depression and suicidal ideation with honesty and wit, Bob's journey is deeply personal, often hilarious, and sometimes heartbreakingly real.

For fans of A Man Called Ove, BoJack Horseman, and Fight Club, this is the story of the guy who won't die-and what he learns when he finally tries to live.
