I sort of understand the idea behind putting in snippets of other people's stories, but I honestly just wanted to get back to Matteo and Rufus everytime we moved away from them. I couldn't care less about Delilah and Victor and that random actor. 

I also wasn't a huge fan of the way the main characters spoke/thought in a *youthy* way - it felt a lot like "hello fellow kids". 

But by the end this didn't seem to matter so much. A great story.

This hurt in all the right ways. Definitely a book for you if you’re looking ti read about a deep connection that is honestly so rare. But it’s out there, even in the most unlikely of places, which is also something the book touches on. So well written and heartaching.

It’s what it says on the tin. The word building is fascinating without being unrealistic. A fun and emotional read that keeps you on the edge of your seat

This was one of my thrift store finds, I saw the title and it made me laugh. It just throws all the cards on the table from the start. I really enjoyed this book. It is so smart and unique, everything is connected to enact fate the way fate knew it was going to end all along. I just loved how all the characters and pieces fell together.

it's very interesting how the story plays out, you don't except most of the plot, the only REALLY predictable thing is the ending, for obvious reasons.
