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

I found it kinda hard to like Rufus. The way the author conveyed the way he spoke didnt seem realistic for me personally. I really liked Mateo though. He was by far my favorite. The premise of story was kinda interesting but i felt maybe it couldve been stretched out to a week rather than a day. It made the connection of the two boys not feel as genuine to me because how well can you really know someone in one day? I know they mentioned that but still i couldnt get past that. Also if i have to read Rufus say “mad” one more time imma rip my hair out.

i hope the tea mateo was gonna make was bomb as fuck
