Very sweet and really depressing book, the romance felt pretty forced and the ending felt rushed but was still adourable and really gay

Deathcast did not call today, because today was not my last day. 
Interesting concept in to this book. What if we knew today was our last day? Also, on our last, we could use an app to “find a friend” to die with. This story made me think a lot about the choices one might make in this situation. 
As for the characters in this book, the story was a bit lacking for me. Their last day did not wow me with their decision making. The ending was not spectacular either. I give it 3 stars for the concept, and original writing.

I am emotionally destroyed… I cannot stop crying or thinking about this story. I loved Mateo and Rufus and I legit did not expect the ending (I mean how it happens). I am not okay and I do not have any other words

I'm not crying...oh, wait, I am...

The title may ruin the end, but it doesn't do it justice. The entire book warmed my heart and took me on a journey that I think I needed to hear myself. The plot builds perfectly and the love and the hate that grows in you will feel like too much. 
In my own delusion, I refused to read the last few pages just so they could not make the title come true. But, eventually I had to. And it just made me sad...and then happy. You'll see when you read it.

4.5

In dieser Welt bekommen alle Menschen, die an einem Tag sterben werden, einen Anruf mit dieser Nachricht. Mateo und Rufus bekommen beide diese Nachricht und sind auf der Suche nach einem letzten Freund.

Sie finden mit ihrer Begegnung nicht nur einen letzten Freund sondern den Mut ihr Leben am letzten Tag zu verändern, sich zu lieben und das Leben zu genießen.

Das Buch und die Welt, die darin erzählt wird, lädt zum Nachdenken über Tod, Schicksal und den Sinn des Lebens ein. Worauf warten manche Taten und Entscheidungen? Welche Begegnungen könnten entstehen? Aber auch die Frage, ob das Leben nicht genau draus besteht, dass wir nicht wissen, wann wir sterben?
