I really like this book. I have a special interest about death I think about it a lot I talk about it a lot so I was like a course I'm going to love this book. The first four points goes to the way that the story is set uw even though the main characters no death is coming they have very different reactions and how they find each other. I usually don't like split povs but I really like this one because not only where we in the main characters head we were in other characters heads ones that we're going to die that day once that were in relation to the main characters and what's that don't really know the characters but interact with them or saw them. All the povs mattered and and added a tense to the book that I really appreciated.
the way is that the book kept teasing me with their death and in the last chapters when Mateo turned on the stove I was like no this is not his end they did this before he's going to survive and he didn't had me balling at work. Even though the story tells you they're both going to die in the end book makes you believe that they won't until they fucking do. 
It was depressing and it killed me in some places the way that they've talked about their own lives like it was already over even though they were still living. The additional 0.5 Points goes to making them gay I really appreciate it that. It added a lot of depth to the end that I thought was especially interesting.

It was the first book I've read that happens within one day. You'd think it would be a super boring experience but it kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time - I just couldn't put the book down. Also, there is a lot of change and closure happening for the characters, which gives you a nice feeling while reading.
The ending is obviously very very sad. Especially, since I was actually hoping for a good ending and was not surprised but still devastated that they really both die at the end.

I would definitely recommend the book, especially since it (probably) is something you've never read before and most likely won't be reading again any time soon. It has SO MANY good quotes, which really make you reflect your own actions and choices.
