MILANA'S REVIEW

This book has made me want to read more contemporary! What a GREAT story. I was hooked and found the splash of sci-fi elements to be refreshing in this story.

The characters had so much depth to them and from page one Mateo became my special bean. I grew so attached to his character it completely threw me off guard. When I read fantasy I know I love a book when I find myself completely attached to the characters. With contemporary this is so rare that I couldn’t believe how much I wanted Mateo to just be okay. Never have I wanted the title of a book to be WRONG as much as I wanted this one to be.

I learned an important lesson from this book, I really do not want to know when my time comes. Nope, I don’t want to know. Adam Silvera you have seriously freaked me out.

Ps. Alex says he loves the title and it makes him want to pick it up.

PPs. Did you notice their shadow makes THE GRIM REAPER?! Look closely.

**Thank you HCC Frenzy for providing me with the ARC for an honest review.**
