Mateo and Rufus are total strangers, but, for different reasons, they’re both looking to make a new friend on their End Day. 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 great adventure—to live a lifetime in a single day.

  • A beautiful read

    The kind of book that forces you to acknowledge the beauty in everything. If death-cast were real; if our world truly revolved around such a system, it’s entirely possible that everyone would hold off on living until their last chance to do so. So this book serves as a wake-up call for me; a reminder to live every moment as if it is your last, because the truth is that is as possible as it is not. I would 100% recommend this book to a friend or to you.

    This is one of my all time favorite books! The mix of emotions I felt while reading was amazing! And the way that the characters grow throughout the book and in such a short time is beautiful.

    I was really looking forward to reading this book because of all the positive reviews. I found the concept very engaging but the plot fell flat. I am glad I read it but wouldn’t recommend it.
