Sobre este audiobook
In this prequel to the bestselling phenomenon They Both Die at the End, two new strangers spend a life-changing day together after Death-Cast first makes their fateful calls. #1 New York Times bestseller!
It’s the night before Death-Cast goes live, and there’s one question on everyone’s mind: Can Death-Cast actually predict when someone will die, or is it just an elaborate hoax?
Orion Pagan has waited years for someone to tell him that he’s going to die. He has a serious heart condition, and he signed up for Death-Cast so he could know what’s coming.
Valentino Prince is restarting his life in New York. He has a long and promising future ahead and he only registered for Death-Cast after his twin sister nearly died in a car accident.
Orion and Valentino cross paths in Times Square and immediately feel a deep connection. But when the first round of End Day calls goes out, their lives are changed forever—one of them receives a call, and the other doesn’t. Though neither boy is certain how the day will end, they know they want to spend it together…even if that means their goodbye will be heartbreaking.
Told with acclaimed author Adam Silvera’s signature bittersweet touch, this story celebrates the lasting impact that people have on each other and proves that life is always worth living to the fullest.
* A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year *

- Nota: 5 de 5 estrelas5/5Amazing book it is a light but dealer than expected… everything is about perspective and this book might help you to see it. Live live live
- Nota: 4 de 5 estrelas4/5Amazing. Crying too much right now. Hope to leave a longer review later.
- Nota: 4 de 5 estrelas4/5I am surprised to say, I think I liked this book better than the first (they both die at the end). The voice actors were monotone at times, but the writing made up for it. I can't wait to read more by Adam Silvera and see the TV series for the first book.
- Nota: 5 de 5 estrelas5/5Eu recomendo muito esse livro. Ele nos faz pensar o quanto precisamos valorizar cada segundo. É uma lição de vida.
- Nota: 5 de 5 estrelas5/5This book had me all in my emotions. I was hoping it would live up to the first book, and boy did it deliver. I laughed. I cried. I yelled into the void while wearing my noise cancelling headphones (listening to the audiobook). This book had everything I needed and more. Thank you Adam Silvera for making my cold heart feel again.
- Nota: 5 de 5 estrelas5/5I read this book cover to cover today, and that's not happened in years. The amount of queer representation made me cry, the storyline made me cry, the characters made me cry, and the whole thing made me cry. It left me guessing what was going to happen because of how good the story was, and every surprise in the plot was amazing. I'm going to go finish sobbing now.
