The characters were nice, I liked to read about them, but I didn’t feel them for some reason if you know what I mean. I liked Griffin, and how nerdy and cute he was, but I didn’t connect at all, and to be honest I wasn’t really that thrilled to see what was going to happen at the end. I didn’t care for the protagonist or the plot.

So the ending was not that big of a deal if not for the message, that I thought was really important. Plus the ending was really predictable… I still liked it, it wasn’t the main problem I had with it, but I was still hoping that it would surprise me somehow. I am not really into DNFing books but this one was testing me… The idea is really interesting and the beginning is lovely, but then it bored me out. To be honest I don’t even know how I ended it. I am certainly a fan of that part of the book.īut overall, the book felt boring. I think it was told in a really interesting and unique way, especially in the end. And the other thing I liked is the message. I really enjoyed the humor and how honest and real it felt. Starting with what I liked about this book, I really enjoyed the writing. I am so sad I didn’t get into this book… Everyone seems to love it and I do like some things, but in general, it felt meh to me. But as the grieving pair grows closer, readers will question Griffin’s own version of the truth – both in terms of what he’s willing to hide, and what true love ultimately means…

And Griffin will stop at nothing to learn every detail of Theo’s new college life, and ultimate death. In a desperate attempt to hold onto every last piece of the past, a broken Griffin forges a friendship with Theo’s new college boyfriend, Jackson. OCD-afflicted seventeen-year-old, Griffin, has just lost his first love – his best friend, ex-boyfriend and the boy he believed to be his ultimate life partner – in a drowning accident. It hurts even more because this isn’t the first promise you’ve broken. And you should know I’m really pissed because you swore you would never die and yet here we are. You’re still alive in alternate universes, Theo, but I live in the real world where this morning you’re having an open casket funeral.
