It has been a long time since a book has made me ugly cry. Like truly uncontrollable sobs. This book made me ugly cry twice and sniffle up at least four additional times. If you’re the type to run from anything that makes you feel, I promise you, you won’t want to miss this book.

In a world where Death-Cast can call you to inform you that sometime in the next twenty-four hours, you’ll die — Mateo Torrez and Rufus Emeterio get the call. These two teenagers find each other via a Last Friend App, where ‘deckers’ (the dying) can find a friend for their end day.  If you had one day to live, what would you do? Mateo and Rufus go on one last big adventure discovering what it means to live, love, and leave no regrets.

This was a haunting, emotionally charged, ride. A page-turning easy read about the power of friendship. I couldn’t put it down. Must read.
