The only reason it isn’t a whole 5 is because I am heartbroken that there is no chance for a sequel featuring the main character’s dynamic. I made the mistake of expecting anything different from what the title might suggest, even though the book is very transparent with the reader. I highly recommend this book, however, do not expect a happy ending. Silvera manages to handle such a bleak and depressing topic, while still maintaining a rather light tone most of the way through. The arcs of each respective character felt very quick, but it does make sense for the situation they are in. Silvera did an amazing job at making whoever reads this book feel like they know these people, even though they are being observed in such a short amount of time and in a very extreme situation. This book has very endearing characters and it really leaves the reader wanting more from them.

They Both Die in the End by Adam Silvera masterfully addresses this tough question.
