I have to admit, I'm somewhat disappointed with this book. It was decent, but not as amazing as I was expecting. I felt like the romance was rushed and didn't make sense, and all of the other relationships felt really shallow. The sentiment is nice, and the writing was well done, but I just wasn't connecting with the story.

This book did a really good job of balancing the heaviness of its material with the need to tell a story that wouldn’t stay mired in existential dread. i appreciate that author wrote from Mateo’s and Rufus’ point of view and did so with distinct characterization. i admire as well how fleshed out all of the non main character felt as well. the story felt like a realistic depiction of what might go down in a world where Death-cast existed. At times, i found the theme being reiterated with slightly different phrasing that didn’t add to the story. i also feel that some people may read this story and not get the message the author intended. it’s a complicated topic, and I am glad someone made an attempt to address it through fiction.

Knowing there going to die at the end is a thought that lingers but I’d often forgotten until a threat arrives

What an incredible read. Character development that gets you hooked into their short lives. A real tear jerker that had me crying through its final pages. As the title says, they both die at the end and the beautiful writing truly makes you feel as though you’re grieving real people. An incredible read.
