the diving bell and the butterfly

i thought the The diving bell and the butterfly was a decent book. I reallly liked how he was able to write the book with just blinking his eye, but i also think it might have been a disadvantage also because at some places it gets real choppy and hard to determine if its past/present, or if its real/make bielieve. As for the story, i found it very interesting story because he doesnt just add the good things of his life, he adds the bad things from his past, his present, good times from the past and others. I dont know if he couldve improved on the ending or not, but i didnt really like it all that much. i think the ending shouldve been some turning point, or some very sad moment. I know this is hard since its not like he could write if he died, but i think he couldve changed the ending, and i duno maybe i just didnt understand the ending like others but i found it reallly bad. If we do another book lets try more of an action-filled book.
