About They Both Die at the End
Adam Silvera reminds us that there’s no life without death and no love without impairment in this devastating yet uplifting story about two people whose lives transform over the course of one unforgettable day.
On September 5, a little after midnight, Death-Cast calls Mateo Torrez and Rufus Emeterio to give them some bad news: They’re going to die today.
Mateo and Rufus are total strangers, but, for different reasons, they’re both looking to make a new comrade on their End Afternoon. The good news: There’s an app for that. It’s called the Last Friend, and through it, Rufus and Mateo are about to meet up for one last superb adventure—to live a lifetime in a single day.
My Review of They Both Die at the End
Okay, so I read this book mostly as a result of my daughter complaining that she wanted to read a publication where people fall in love and then they both die at the end. So I was like, I think I know
They Both Die At The End is an amazing unpredictable-YA about living vs. dying. It features a gay Puerto-Rican main character and a bisexual Cuban main character. I do have to say, this novel really went beyond the pages for me. I wasn’t just concerned about the characters or the storyline, but it also forced me to mention my own fears that have to do with death. I’ve been facing a lot of bad anxiety comparable to death recently, and They Both Die At The End made it not possible for me to shove those feelings down any longer. It was similar to exposure therapy by drawing me to confront my issues rather than just creating more anxiety, so in the end, it was a positive outcome. This is definitely a masterpiece of abstract fiction. Abstract fiction, for me, is meant for emotions, as successfully as being meant for exploration and discovery. This publication is a story of a last chance and a last day for two very distinct people, but it's a story that's best perceived personally. It story asks you to transform yourself every free day.
…
In this world, a company called Death-cast notifies people on the day when they are going to die, and an app matches people with strangers who are also going to pass away that day. Two teenage boys, Rufus and Mateo, find each other through the app and spend their last day together.

Rac We all know I adore a book that does exactly what it says on the tin, and what you see is what you get in They Both Die At The End. This lgbtq+ young adult novel &#; Silvera&#;s third &#; was first published back in , but it&#;s had a recent resurgence in the best-seller list thanks to a spike in popularity on #BookTok. So, there are two main characters (the titular ones, who die at the end), both young men in their late teens. Mateo is a nervous wreck of a human, Rufus is a tough guy with a lot of baggage. They don&#;t recognize each other from bars of soap, but they&#;re about to spend their last day alive together. In the world of They Both Die At The End, everyone gets a phone call on the day that they&#;ll expire, letting them know it&#;s about to happen and, y&#;know, good luck. It&#;s a system called &#;Death-Cast&#;, and that&#;s pretty much all that Silvera tells us about it. Apparently, the prequel novel (The First To Die At The End, published in ) gives a bit more background as to how the system came into effect, but that didn&#;t really help me much going into this one.
