This book definitely has a case of “over-hyped syndrome” which is too bad. It feels like a boring episode of Black Mirror. I definitely liked it, so I rated it based on what I would have if it hadn’t been so hyped up. I didn’t cry like I expected to, and I’m also kinda mad that
we didn’t get to see how Rufus dies. I’m assuming he gets hit by a car but if you’re going to title a book They Both Die at the End, they should BOTH be dead by the last sentence in my opinion, lol.
Lydia held this story together, Amy made me want to smash my head into a wall. Also, Rufus reminds me of Julian from Cemetery Boys (and yes I know this came out first but I read Cemetery Boys first and it’s better imo). That’s all of my opinions, everything else was pretty blah tbh.
