A short but moving story about what matters in life. The main character was ordinary but in a good way. We follow a character who is about to die but the devil comes and offers him a deal: you will live one more day but a certain thing will disappear from the world. The main character has to find out what matters most to them and in that journey he reflects on his life and the relationships in it. 
It was a beautiful book about what matters most to you. And as the mom in the book says 
In order to gain something you have to loose something.
