This book is touching and sweet and incredibly sad all at once. I enjoyed this prequel as it provided some clarity for things that happened later on down the line. I felt like the characters are all written very distinctly so the shifting perspective is never confusing.

Literally bawled my eyes out like a freaking baby! First time crying in my dorm while my roommate was there. This book with claw out your heart and replace it with its own. 

I only wish we were able to learn how deathcast works. I feel like the way this was written where it tried to involve you in the creation of deathcast but still keep you separate didn’t work. It made me think that Adam Silvera doesn’t actually know how deathcast is supposed to work.

I knew I wanted to return to this universe, but I didn't realise just how much until I started listening. Death has been on my mind in general, but this book has helped develop my thoughts more. Thank you Adam Silvera for your heartwarming (and heartbreaking..) romances, and for the bonus storylines that were as engaging as the main characters! My only complaint is that the writing is off sometimes, like it's trying to be flowery but fails to do so gracefully. Regardless, it was enjoyable!

“It’s not fair how someone can do everything right and still be hurt because someone else does one thing wrong.” He did it again. Broke my heart all over again. His writing can’t help but give me hope for the characters only for things to turn out so differently than I wanted them to. Definitely NOT a light read. This book is for more of a I wanted to cry and have my heart broken type of mood. I loved how we also see the characters from the first book and experience the parallels between them. I definitely recommend reading or rereading they both die at the end before reading this book as it’s adds a nice touch to those specific scenes. Their ending was so beautiful. I didn’t see it coming until the last moment. One last gift.
