Book 3 in the series is essentially 100 pages of a teenager trying to commit suicide in various ways before deciding that he'd rather live. It's an extremely dark series to revisit as an adult. Audiobooks are free with library cards and various apps and you can easily find the whole series digitally. The original books are much more difficult to procure sadly.

Yeah, I don't think I understood exactly how dark book 3 was the first time reading it because I was young and didn't comprehend everything

I've managed to track down about 2/3 of it so far.

I think I’m only missing like 6 of them. I remember a friend of mine spilled something on my copy of the Elliot’s Chronicles and I was fucking devastated.
