生命最後一天的旅程
《Before I Fall 在我倒下之前》 、《If I Stay 如果我留下》作者Adam Silvera 又一力作《They Both Die at the End 生命最後一天的旅程》

兩個不同的人，生活在一段令人難忘的一天中發生變化的毀滅性但令人振奮的故事。沒有死亡就沒有生命，沒有失去就沒有愛情。

故事的世界有個機制，在死亡日期當天零點開始，所有人會接獲一通預知死期的電話，但只有日期而沒有時間點，也不知會如何發生。同時，這個世界有個叫做Last Friend的App，能在上面找到朋友度過生命的最後一天。

18歲的Mateo是個保守的青少年，很少出外做些冒險的事，很少體驗生活。17歲的Rufus相反，他常常騎著腳踏車在街上遊蕩，在廣場親吻女友，在暗巷痛毆前女友的現在男友。

九月五號，兩個人都接獲了死期電話通知。兩位徹頭徹尾的陌生人，在最後一天卻陰錯陽差地都需要認識一個新的朋友，而他們在Last Friend 上找到彼此，展開最後一場冒險，陪伴他們度過最後一天。

如果你能預知死期，在生命的最後一天，你會怎麼做?

Adam Silvera reminds us that there's no life without death and no love without loss in this devastating yet uplifting story about two people whose lives change over the course of one unforgettable day.

On September 5, 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. 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.

In the tradition of Before I Fall and If I Stay, They Both Die at the End is a tour de force from acclaimed author Adam Silvera, whose debut, More Happy Than Not, the New York Times called "profound."

Featuring a map of the novel's characters and their connections, an exclusive essay by the author, and a behind-the-scenes look at the early outlines for this critically acclaimed bestseller.
