When I first heard about this book, I thought it sounded to interesting and I really wanted to read it. I don’t think I’ve ever read anything like this before, and I was really curious.
I found this book so emotional. Within the first 100 pages I was nearly crying. I really like books that make me emotional, and that make me cry, so that was a good start for me.
I really liked all the characters. I found the main character, Lily, way more relatable than I usually find characters who are close to death and are trying to live as much as they can in the short time they have left. I’ve read other books where the main character who is near to death has a bucket list that includes things like smoking and drugs and near death experiences, and that is really not something I can relate to. I found Lily’s list way more relatable, which was really nice.
I also liked Lily’s family. I really appreciated the fact that they seemed to be aware that Lily’s twin, Ben, knew her the best, and they went with most of his ideas for her funeral. That made me happy.
I really liked the fact that as well as getting the story from Lily’s point of view, there are also chapters from the point of view of characters who new her. I really liked seeing first hand how Lily’s death affected them and how they slowly recovered.
