“Instead of waiting for the day when an operator calls to tell me I’m going to die, I already understand how important it is to live while I can.”
Gloria loves that insight.
Life shouldn’t be about to end before someone begins living.
Much better than the first book! But I do love the callback to the first book too.
Why am I still devastated when a character dies even though I’m told in the beginning that they’re gonna die??? Also, I’m upset that
Graphic: Death, Gun violence, Violence
3.5
I really love the concept of the book but it gets repetitive rather quickly kind of like the first book. The characters have an idea and then explore all the reasons they might die from it and then come up with an alternative. The use of the same words over and over also got on my nerves.
I also really want to accept and embrace Death-Cast but because the book is more realistic I have a hard time doing so. I know it’s supposed to be secretive but I just have a hard time buying into knowing when people will die but not how with 0 explanation.
