In this prequel to #1 New York Times 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.

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 th

It’s not fair how someone can do everything right and still be hurt because someone else does one thing wrong.

Death-Cast is hosting so many parties across the country, I think to lift people’s spirits and get them hyped about this program that will change life and death as we know it 

As a writer, I’m always telling stories before I even know what they’re about, getting carried away and turning words into sentences, sentences into paragraphs, paragraphs into chapters, chapters into love stories. Maybe winging it like that works for novels, but for life, your imagination can set you up for a heartbreaking ending  

I write short stories because I am one. I wish I was novel. Breaths away from midnight, I know my final chapter is close. I look up at Valentino, wondering what life could’ve offered if I had more pages in me

Befriending someone who is about to die has no value; it’s like flushing cash down the toilet. This person will not become a lifelong friend who attends your wedding, or your funeral. They will not celebrate your triumphs, or comfort you during your failures. They won’t even move into tomorrow with you. What’s the point?

Like I was at nine years old when my parents went into the city for a meeting and were killed after a plane was flown into the World Trade Center's south tower.

I think it will eventually because I don’t remember Matteo or Rufus baving the money to pay for that

that I wish were free, and I'm adding Death-Cast to the list. People's lives are at stake here.

and this cute white boy whose curls are creeping out from under his baseball cap. 

Until a tall guy-I bet he's my age-passes by and breaks my focus. And I mean really breaks my focus because dude is beautiful. 

Probably only for one day so don’t get too attached even tho I know you will

But not as much as I like how much he's going to be in my life now.
