The story and its main character are written with a lot emotional weight, but I wholeheartedly felt Aaron deserved so much more after having going through everything up until the books conclusion. He definitely did not deserve fine, okay, whatever.

I don’t remember how I came across this book, but I didn’t know it was Silvera’s first book until after I checked it out. Let me just say he did a great job for this being his first book. I enjoyed the plot a lot and even though there wasn’t a lot of romance I found the Leto part of the story interesting, for my favorite book is They Both Die at the End. I now know he does an amazing job with writing books that are different but similar to our world, which I love because it feels real but with a little but of dystopian or science fiction. I laughed to myself when I saw the name Scorpious Hawthorne, I guess almost or all his books could be in this universe he has created, which is pretty cool.

This book was emotionally heartbreaking, yet things moved too quickly in the beginning and I wasn't fully invested until around the halfway point. That being said, I am super excited for Adam Silvera's next book because he has the potential to be one of my favorite authors.

An interesting concept, and I loved the twist and the ending. This is something I probably would've really loved if I were YA, however, idk... the way the characters spoke felt like it tried a little too hard to be YA.

This book broke my heart over and over again. And I loved it. Reading it felt like putting all emotions I am capable of feeling in a blender and blending them for so long I couldn't really tell what I was feeling. I felt happy and sad and fearful and heartbroken and just genuinely emotional. Thank you for this, Adam Silvera, your books are brilliant even though they always leave me crying curled up in a little ball of emotions.
