I really like this book. I have a special interest about death I think about it a lot I talk about it a lot so I was like a course I'm going to love this book. The first four points goes to the way that the story is set uw even though the main characters no death is coming they have very different reactions and how they find each other. I usually don't like split povs but I really like this one because not only where we in the main characters head we were in other characters heads ones that we're going to die that day once that were in relation to the main characters and what's that don't really know the characters but interact with them or saw them. All the povs mattered and and added a tense to the book that I really appreciated.
the way is that the book kept teasing me with their death and in the last chapters when Mateo turned on the stove I was like no this is not his end they did this before he's going to survive and he didn't had me balling at work. Even though the story tells you they're both going to die in the end book makes you believe that they won't until they fucking do. 
It was depressing and it killed me in some places the way that they've talked about their own lives like it was already over even though they were still living. The additional 0.5 Points goes to making them gay I really appreciate it that. It added a lot of depth to the end that I thought was especially interesting.

Not my favorite ending. But the journey throught the book is enjoyable. The different POVs can be off putting at times but overall pretty good.

This hurt in all the right ways. Definitely a book for you if you’re looking ti read about a deep connection that is honestly so rare. But it’s out there, even in the most unlikely of places, which is also something the book touches on. So well written and heartaching.

i put off reading this book for a while and not because the plot didn’t interest me but because i hadn’t ever given reading a good go and i saw how much it initially got hyped up on tiktok. my best friend bought it for me as a gift and i can honestly say if you’re struggling to get into a reading flow this book is perfect for breaking down that barrier, the characters are lovable and the development of mateo and rufus is very strong with their flaws being one of the main focuses of the book. this book is uplifting and powerful and holds a strong sense of hope. i can imagine if i had read this as a younger adult it would have given me push i needed in order to live and not just survive.
