The book makes your head work. It makes you use your brain without screaming at you who the characters are every five minutes.
Yes, it mentions it sometimes like Adam's They Both Die at The End.
It has the time system that they both die at the end did.
It has different povs.
I like that sort of thing.
Tomás' va in audible has a better Tyler voice than I have ever heard from both of the va's.
Claire's va in audible has a good "news cast lady" voice.
"Sylv and Autumn being girlfriends" wasn't mentioned until page 22 because it was hidden.
Makes me wonder if that was intentional.
Cons :
Is this book realistic? No. Not at all.
It's almost a joke as to what the author believes is what a school shooting is.
Bro is twirling his little evil mustache/j
A quote ; page 59,
"Be so kind as to lock this door, NOW if you please."
Something he talks about in the book is not being seen and wanting to make people see him. Although I have that problem being a high school student, it's bullshit for the author to think that something so small would be something so big.
I question people's ages and people's races in this book. Perhaps it's because it isn't mentioned as much in the first eight chapters?
And I agree with that as well.
The book feels as though it focuses on the school shooting itself. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. But if you want to feel something towards the character. I feel there should be more personality there.
I was confused about how they were related to the people in the school.
And I assume Mei is the daughter of Mr Jameson?
Maybe I'll go back and annotate the book some more to figure it out.
Or maybe it'll have a chart of how everyone is connected at the end.
Like They Both Die At The End
(So I looked, and it does not have a chart explaining who's who.)
I apologize for continuing to quote that book. Not only is that the book I finished completely without dnfing it. But it also often reminds me of that.
