5.0

just finished this and it is so so so good. i’ve heard a lot of people say it’s overhyped and say „guys this author has written other things!!!“ but i’ve read (well started) another of his books, and it’s good don’t get me wrong but there’s a reason this book gets so much hype!!!

premise is really cool — in this world you get notified by Death Cast around midnight of the day you’re going to die. society has integrated this so there’s special events for people living their last day and ways to find people to be with if you have no one. 

it follows two boys on their last day but also shares the stories of a few others (not hard to keep track of tho!). it’s all about living your life to it’s fullest potential and how to not have regrets. 

idk what else to say but as i got closer and closer to the end my heart was literally racing bc, like the title says „they both die at the end“.
