Going Bovine SPOILERS!
You know how much I love a bittersweet, realistic ending. Cam dying at the end is the type of ending I like in books and usually want. BUT NOT THIS TIME. I wanted him to sit up and be well and live happily ever after. I wanted the trip to be real. Usually the sadness of life is perfect literature for me, but oh, I was so gutted when I got the ending I usually crave.

Yeah, I agree. Though I must be dumb, because I held out hope that his adventure was *real* for much longer than I should have.
The ending bugged me too. I felt like the wondering if it was real or not was ruined the first time he woke up in the hospital. I thought "ok, great, now I know it's all fake and he's going to die." I wanted him to get better and take his new found confidence and do something great. But I did enjoy the book overall.
