"Life shouldn't he about to end befor someone begins living." (pg. 419)

ADAM SILVERA!!! He's done it again. Never have I cried so much over a book series—makes sense because no other book series I've read has centered around death but I digress. I will admit, I was much more attached to Rufus and Mateo (Roof will always be my favorite character w/n this duology)
but that doesn't mean I didn't cry over Valentino’s death.
I think I cried less because it's a more beautiful and hopeful ending than TBDATE.
While Valentino dies, Orion gets to live on with Valentino’s heart.
As much as I hate Mr. Silvera for making me cry, all in all, I enjoyed this book.
