A very interesting concept. Seeing the way world both adapted to and capitalized on the Death Cast was very intriguing, but could have been explored even more. The characters and their romance are likable enough, but the way the dialogue is written felt very "hello fellow kids" so that part was kinda off-putting. I will say the ending hits like a ton of bricks.

One of the characters dies in a sudden house fire. Another dies by walking in front of a car, the text is vague if it was intentional

I enjoyed it, but maybe not as much as I was expecting, considering the amount of hype around it. I think the concept is really interesting, analyzing how people react to knowing that today is when they die. The way the two main characters interacted, despite how different they were, was interesting.
I would recommend giving it a go. I plan to read the sequel.

This book had me hooked from the first sentence. 
Heartwrenching from the beginning but so good. Such an amazing look at life in a day and the heaviness of grief. 
The characters felt real, their stories both relatable and foreign. 
This book was so heavy but so so good.
