The title already tells you what to expect but it still hurts when Mateo dies. What hurt me the most was how suddenly it happened. You know its going to happen but still, when it does happen, you're not ready for it. If that was the author's way of emphasising how unpredictable death is, he definitely succeeded.
I loved how there were so many stories that were interconnected. It was like a reminder that you might be going about your life thinking its worthless but your presence might've inadvertently made a mark in someone's life.
Not going to lie, I did lose my interest in this book at the mid-way point because it felt like it was dragging on aimlessly for too long but as the ending of the book drew closer, I was definitely more invested.
