I really enjoyed the story and the overall theme that you never really know when it’s your time or when it’s someone you know time to transcend this earthly realm. A question that repeatedly came for me was what does it look like to live fully and authentically every day?

I also enjoyed how Adam intricately wrote in some of the OG’s in (Mateo and Rufus) and how The Last Friend App came to be. It was a really cute and touching story about living, truly living and being. I asked myself if I had been truly living or just surviving? A piece of me feels like I’ve been living and existing in the moment and I’m grateful, but a part of me also feels like I’ve been on auto-pilot (but I’ll save that for a journal entry🤭)

Overall would defiantly recommend that you all go out and read the book! But definitely read the TBDATE before you read TFTDATE.
