Young people facing the most challenging thing what is  

dying</spoiler, but still they have a lot of hope, mature view like also young mentality about what happening. They growing up to fast, because they not have a choice and seeing how everything is changing in just one day in they life makes you question your own.

3.5

This book was a sabotage for a heartbreak since the beginning. I mean even the title explains how the story ends, but we all had that hope that in the end they would somehow someway defeat death. This book was a masterpiece it explained how we should always live life to the fullest in every moment, and to take risks no matter the outcome. This books at its core is a reflection on how everyday people should live their lives. The overall characters and story line and how it ended left me in pieces! 

If you love: 
-Sad books 
-inspiring storyline
-a quick and easy read 
-makes you think storyline 
-found family 
-MML

Genre/Type: Contemporary Fiction 14+

I liked this book but after a while it seemed to just drag itself along and I wasn't really invested in the characters as much as I'd wished I was.

2.0

My biggest gripe with this book is the forgettability of it and the severe issues of pacing. For only taking place across a single day, the plot feels like it occurs painfully slow. Way too much time is spent with a character just contemplating something.

None of the characters feel that distinct and while you understand each character's motivation I just could not bring myself to care about any of them. 

The premise of the world is really interesting but the amount we actually get to explore the world outside of the deckers themselves is incredibly limited. The insertions of different characters didn't flow very well and just felt like padding for the book. Often times they didn't really introduce anything new or really at all connected to the main plot.

I was not at all invested in the relationship aspect or the world. The beginning especially dragged before Mateo met Rufus. 

By the time I got to the end of the book I wasn't really sad, I was just happy the book was over.

This kind of book may be for some people, but that does not include me.
