I enjoyed this slightly more than They Both Die At The End.
I liked that there was more of a background given about Death Cast. I also preferred the characters in this book.
I did not like that, aside from some minute differences, it basically felt as though I was reading the same book again. But longer and, in my opinion, unnecessarily so. I think it dragged on for too long, and the whole "falling in love" in less than a day thing is not something I'm a fan of. I know there are people who like it, and that's great, but it's really something that doesn't make sense in my mind.
I think I would have preferred to read about two people who already know each other well and are very close or even two strangers who meet because one or both "got the call" and just become friends.
To each their own, but unfortunately, I don't think Adam Silvera is the author for me.
