#54 - If I remember right, Personal Days and Then We Came To The End, came out right around the same time, so it's really striking how similar they are - especially the 2nd person.

Oddly, both books came out right around the same time-ish, and both are told (mostly) in the collective 'we' voice. Weird. Pa ... 9. With the Light : Raising an Autistic Child Vol 2 by Keiko Tobe

I was hoping for something along the lines of Then We Came to the End or Company. I didn't think this book was as good as either one of those. It takes place at an unnamed company in New York where slowly everyone is getting fired. It had some funny moments, ...
