On September 5th, a little after midnight, Death-Cast calls Mateo Torrez and Rufus Emeterio to give them some bad news: they’re going to die today. 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.

Adam Silvera’s They Both Die at the End is an exploration of what it means to live fully. Through the eyes of Mateo, a reclusive and anxious teenager, and Rufus, a brash and troubled young man, Silvera crafts a poignant narrative about connections and courage. As they navigate New York City, testing their limits and embracing new experiences, they discover the profound impact one day, one person, one connection can have.
