Sehr interessant geschrieben - der Anfang hat sich für mich persönlich zu sehr gezogen aber die Charaktere haben sich extrem schön während der Geschichte entwickelt

This book really surprised me in how gently it managed to deliver such a beautiful tale that’s heartfelt and important. It was speculative fiction with clever world-building but it was also so raw in its emotional matter-of-fact plot. Ultimately, the book doesn’t try to deus ex macchina - it gives you exactly what you asked for and I really appreciated a story that puts the journey before the destination.

Spoiler

I thought the concept was really cool and I expected a heartfelt story. I guess the story was realistic (they only had a day) but I would have liked some wonder, something profound - a message or reminder to live everyday like it’s the last.

For me, this just didn’t work. Everyone was just wary and waiting for death to claim Mateo & Rufus while others like Peck tries yielding it like a weapon, thinking they are capable of dealing death’s blow since Rufus was already “doomed” anyway.

Perhaps it was my own expectations but I felt like I didn’t get what I came here for.

This one is will really tug at your heartstrings— a truly engaging and heartfelt novel that, while sometimes being a little too “obvious” in it’s themes, is so easy to love.

I didn't like this book, may be it's not for me, i didn't cry or had a lot of sympathy for the characters,
I mean the idea is new and really makes you wonder and think and try to treat every day as your very last day.
But the 2 main characters here are so ridiculous and also the style of writing is lame and boring.
So i think 2 stars are more than enough for the idea.
