I also wasn't a huge fan of the way the main characters spoke/thought in a *youthy* way - it felt a lot like "hello fellow kids".
But by the end this didn't seem to matter so much. A great story.

This brunette girl, mad pretty, is bawling when a guy advances on her with some tired-ass pickup line (“Maybe you’ll live to see another day with some Vitamin Me in your system.”)
As a person with a monster truck of anxiety, I very much related to Matteo. Most of the passages I highlighted to save are from his POV. I enjoyed watching him as the story progressed.
The only complaint I can think of is my disappointment that Final Destination was not mentioned ONCE during this entire book, when it had been set up so perfectly so many times. But as I was writing this I had the panicky thought that kids today might not even know what that movie is, which is horrifying
I know there’s a prequel that came after this, and just discovered there’s a book 2 coming out next year. I obviously don’t know what happens in those so I don’t know if this gets answered, but I want another book to come out where you find out there’s some big nefarious conspiracy to how Death-Cast got started, and how people deal with finding it out/having to get it shut down/something like that. Buuut that’s my love of ominous horror/thrillers bleeding into this world lol

🇬🇧: This book is so beautifully written. What if you know you are going to die but you don't know how or when. The thought process of two people who received this phone call is described very nicely. Two beautiful people, completely different but with the same fate. The book is very moving and makes you think. It is also written in such a way that you fly through it. It is very nice that the chapters are short and that you can see who it is about at the top of the chapter. All in all a beautiful book with a beautiful subject

Me not even ten or so pages later: *balling my eyes out for the rest of the book*
READ THIS BOOK. DO IT. Of course if constant mentions of death is triggering for you, then don’t read it. I keep thinking about the book and just want to cry 😭
