It was a solid 3 until the author killed off the brother. Good but not great especially since I don't like a few of the books on the list. The fact it was the wife's list was also kinda meh. After finishing, I also found it a bit gross that the book opened with the brother finding but not taking the list, given the character committed suicide later. Books can be a lifeline, but they're definitely not the only one, so it just felt wrong. Not saying the author intended that message, but it definitely put me off.
