They Both Die at the End, by Adam Silvera
Mateo is at a loss for words as he gets the terrible message from Death-Cast telling him that today will be his last day. The idea of leaving behind his father, who is in the hospital, his best friend, and her infant daughter breaks Mateo's heart. That being said, he is aware that today is his final opportunity to go out and strike a good image, so he must make the best of the situation. When Rufus receives the message, he is already violently attacking his past girlfriend’s new partner. Rufus is familiar with Death-Cast, but that doesn't make things much simpler. It's time to flee; he has connections to repair, the cops are looking for him, and his irate new boyfriend is hot on his pursuit. Nevertheless, not one of the two had anticipated that this might result in a romantic relationship.
Being brutally honest, They Both Die at the End, by Adam Silvera, did not quite live up to my expectations. Do not get me wrong, it was extremely emotional. I did feel sad that they did not get the happy ending they should have gotten. However, I believe that the meaning behind the book was much better than the book itself. I wish that the two main characters had more time together. To sum it all up, after reading “They Both Die at the End”, you'll most likely feel optimistic, astonished, tickled, and heartbroken. I adored the characters and atmosphere since it was so elegant and captivating. When you need a break from anything, it is ideal to read for fiction enthusiasts who prefer current fiction.
