Whew. I just finished the book and that was one of the best endings I’ve ever read. Although I found myself comparing this book to They Both Die at the End pretty often, and while I probably enjoyed that one more, this book is so much more inspiring and completely changed my perspective on life (again). It’s really one of those books that makes you sad but you’re okay with it because everything really is gonna be okay. I’m so thankful I read this and I’m ready to live for all the Valentinos that haven’t lived enough.
