It captures the human heart and all its nuances so perfectly. The characters are fully-formed, and you feel so deeply connected to them.
I loved the little Easter eggs for They Both Die At The End, and now want to reread that one (if my heart can take it that is... May need to get more tissues first).
Just phenomenal writing.

I do think Silvera’s language is quite easy which is something I liked last time, but now it just felt flat (?). I think the characters speech and actions feels unreal, but I do really like the plot and the thing with one of them dying.
I just had higher expectations and they weren’t meet.
I have both books from “the infinity son” which I’m planning to read but be will see.
Took me 9 hours and 48 minutes
