Ahhhh I loved this heartwarming and also devastating prequel! In what I have come to expect from Silvera, no detail or relationship is unimportant, and I LOVED finding all the small references to They Both Die at the End. Also, this prequel was such a beautiful love letter to NYC and all its hidden and ever-changing treasures. The voice actors were also INCREDIBLE at bringing the characters to life.
