Nick Morton Courtesy of Subject It’s 5:45 a.m. on a Tuesday, and the Home Depot on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood is already bustling.

And as a recovering alcoholic, he looks at suicide - at least in part - through the lens of addiction. I found the book revelatory and - as someone who regularly contemplates taking his own life - wildly helpful.
