I absolutely loved the humor in this book (esp the dark flavored variety). It was sewn in well to help break up the emotional stuff (and was very much appreciated). Here’s an example that made me cackle:

This brunette girl, mad pretty, is bawling when a guy advances on her with some tired-ass pickup line (“Maybe you’ll live to see another day with some Vitamin Me in your system.”)

As a person with a monster truck of anxiety, I very much related to Matteo. Most of the passages I highlighted to save are from his POV. I enjoyed watching him as the story progressed. 

The only complaint I can think of is my disappointment that Final Destination was not mentioned ONCE during this entire book, when it had been set up so perfectly so many times. But as I was writing this I had the panicky thought that kids today might not even know what that movie is, which is horrifying 

I know there’s a prequel that came after this, and just discovered there’s a book 2 coming out next year. I obviously don’t know what happens in those so I don’t know if this gets answered, but I want another book to come out where you find out there’s some big nefarious conspiracy to how Death-Cast got started, and how people deal with finding it out/having to get it shut down/something like that. Buuut that’s my love of ominous horror/thrillers bleeding into this world lol

Really loved this book!! I cried way more than I was expecting, but I really enjoyed it. I thought it was very reflective, and joyous, and full of heart. The structure was really fun, I really loved getting multiple perspectives and the layout of the book. Very good read.

🇳🇱: Dit boek is zo mooi geschreven. Wat als je weet dat je dood gaat maar niet hoe en wanneer. Het denkproces van twee mensen die dit telefoontje kregen wordt heel mooi beschreven. Twee prachtige mensen, totaal verschillend maar hetzelfde lot. Het boek is erg aangrijpend en zet je aan het denken. Ook is het zo geschreven dat je er doorheen vliegt.  Het is erg prettig dat de hoofdstukken kort zijn en dat je boven het hoofdstuk ziet over wie het gaat. Al met al een prachtig boek met een mooi onderwerp.

🇬🇧: This book is so beautifully written. What if you know you are going to die but you don't know how or when. The thought process of two people who received this phone call is described very nicely. Two beautiful people, completely different but with the same fate. The book is very moving and makes you think. It is also written in such a way that you fly through it. It is very nice that the chapters are short and that you can see who it is about at the top of the chapter. All in all a beautiful book with a beautiful subject
