lol mental stability haha whats that
WARNING -- SLIGHT SPOILERS AHEAD !!
We need a 6 stars button. This book ACTUALLY broke me. Emotionally, physically- I can't even form words. This and They Both Die At The End- I can't.
I think all feelings should be halted.
Let it be known that I cried 3 times during this book >:DDD Emotions, amiright
The first thing that I want to start off with was the writing style. I absolutely ADORED it. It was so so so gorgeous.

4.5/5 stars
“I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world.”
I am….speechless. Unfortunately, I still did not cry during this book, but I am still sad.
As your local picky-ass reader, I hereby declare this book worthy of all the hype it gets.
Okay, Okay, you might be wondering why this is not a five star book, and I will get to that, but I mostly want to talk about ...more

“Name one hero who was happy."
"You can't." He was sitting up now, leaning forward.
"I can't."
"I know. They never let you be famous and happy." He lifted an eyebrow. "I'll tell you a secret."
"Tell me." I loved it when he was like this.
"I'm going to be the first." He took my palm and held it to his. "Swear it."
"Why me?"
"Because you're the reason. Swear it."
"I swear it”
