"Jesse Bering asks the questions no one else dares, he tells truths that others shy away from, and he writes the books that I wish I had written. To me, he is everything a great scientist and communicator should be. Suicide may be an uncomfortable subject yet the escalating numbers of people who take their lives each year means we must make it’s unravelling our priority. I have no doubt this book will have a profound impact on all who read it, and add considerably to our understanding of that self-willed oblivion, whether it lies palpably just beneath our own skin, or the skins of those we love. But perhaps most importantly of all it will help dispel the stigma and shame that so perniciously clings to all suicides."

"As a sex writer, Jesse Bering is fearless--and peerless."

Dan Savage

“Nothing sacred is spared in Jesse Bering’s deft, rivetingly informative, and relentlessly hilarious new book. Bering’s addictive curiosity and wry, dexterous humor make this a collection that’s as funny as it is impossible to put down.”
