A good book to read to reflect on a possible future where you know you will die on the day you die. Explores different scenarios, emotions, etc. However, it is really interesting how all the character interplay with each other for this 24 hour period.

The first section was really slow, but the characters grew on me quickly once they were together. The last two sections felt much faster and I actually had to pause my reading because I couldn’t see through my tears. It was a very intense cry that felt really good but it emotionally wrecked me for days (lovingly). I also read the short story about Mateo’s dad that was included in my copy, pushing through even more tears. You can kind of zone out the beginning, but I would definitely recommend if you want a good cry and some hope in humanity. Love is always inspiring, especially in cases like these.

This book broke my heart in the best way possible. I have never read a book that has made me contemplate life and how I live it as much as this one did. I can’t recommend it enough. Mateo and Rufus are a perfect foil to each other which makes the books flow so well.

Although you know what happens in the end, it does not make it any easier. You go in trying to distance yourself from the characters because you know but at some point, that wall comes down and you become attached to them. This book really make you think, how would I react? Would I want to know? What would I do on my end day?
