I’m not a fan of the writing style of the characters. “ the world is mad cruel.” It sounds like he's trying too hard to appeal to teens.
This book does not have any real discernible climax or resolution. The events seem very random and don’t follow a theme or goal. The characters are flat and seem to make decisions to drive the plot of these random events, rather than reflect good character.
This book will not keep you up at night. It will not make you cry. However, it is perfect for making you tired before bed.
Moderate: Grief and Car accident
Minor: Gun violence

Even though it was evident they both would die at the end (the whole point of the title) I still hoped against everything they both would live. There weren't any plot twists per se but the build-up, and the storyline was 'close-the-book-for-a-while-and-breathe' worthy. Overall a good book to read.
