This book is one of the saddest and at the same time most hopeful books I have ever read. It tackles the issue of dealing with knowing the death of a close person or even yourself will occur and how to live your life to the fullest, not only when you know it's about the end. It shows in a heartbreaking and beautiful way how important it is to take control of your own life, be the captain of your own ship if you will. For that it not only uses the two main characters but also the people surrounding them and learning the same lesson. They are included in the story with an amazing  thoughtfulness and their lifes are tied into each other which shows how close and similar we can be to someone without realizing. This book will forever remain in my heart and I am so thankful the author wrote this prequel.

I LOVE They Both Die at the End. But this one. 

I love this one much more. The pain, the heartache, love all of it and more. This book ripped me to pieces to put me back together to rip me into pieces again. 

The emotion poured into every word is incredible. This is one that I'll take with me everywhere.
