Have you ever had a really good day, only to have it ruined by something sad and depressing? I just finished a great book today, one of those teenage love books (I'm serious, it was good), thought it would have a happy ending, and then the author drops a bomb and gives one of the saddest endings ever. Still stuck in my head. Not often I get so sucked into a book.
I'm curious. What was the ending?

And the book (just PM me)
It's a Swedish book, isn't available in English. Sorry.
The book is about a normal guy who meets a beautiful girl at the bus, and falls in love with her. They grow closer, then they slept together. Then he went for a trip, and when he came back, he found out that she had been together with someone else, and never wanted to be together with him. He then slowly falls into depression. By the end, she tells him she will call him, that she wants to help him. He waits and waits, hoping she will call, but then kills himself, just when the phone starts to ring.
Doesn't seem like the strongest story, but it's told in a genius way and really broke my heart, cause I grew such a connection with the main character, cause he reminded me of myself.
