i loved this book so much. it was an emotional roller coaster, watching mateo and rufus grow closer. the ending was really sad, tears might have been shed. i would recommend a box of tissues while reading this.

I read and watched multiple reviews  on this book and I didn’t expect to feel anything since I’m not at all an emotional person with sad books. This book, however, absolutely wrecked me. The way the book is formatted makes you feel like they have so much time together and made me forget that they were eventually going to die despite that being the title of the book. One part I can appreciate is this books’ focus is on the relationship aspect, the way they both changed after meeting each other even though they had only met 24 hours before. I also appreciate that it doesn’t outwardly state that it’s LGBT so those who are not out and/or in an unaccepting home, like me, can read it and still feel represented. Overall great book with amazing suspense and relationships.

 Overall Thoughts:
⁕ The book is largely structured around Mateo and Rufus' narration with some 3rd person narration sprinkled in here and there. Each chapter is in chronological order and timestamped throughout their last day.   

⁕ The ending of this book did not have the emotional impact that Tik Tok and Bookstagram promised. Maybe it's because the title of the book spoils it, but I think it's actually because the tear-jerking, misty-eyed moments are sprinkled in throughout the plot. The focus of the book is the journey and connections that are made along the way, not the destination. 

⁕ The "sci-fi" elements central to the plot of this book are incredibly intriguing. However, if you are drawn to this book solely because of death cast and it's implications, this might not be the read for you! World-building only extends as far as it is relevant to the direct impact it has on Mateo and Rufus. There are no deep dives into the history, politics, or science besides some very vague basics.
