A beautifully written book about death and coming to terms with the very reality that it is indeed inevitable. Whew, it was the falling in love with the characters for me. Rufus and Mateo, their friendship and finding comfort in one another as they experience their last few moments in life together. They ask the hard deep questions about what happens after they die, while also presently mending the broken and unscathed parts of their lives.

I give it 3 stars because there were many side characters that in the end came/crossed paths with protagonists Rufus and Mateo; however, there were also some unnecessary side stories that did not contribute to the plot or the character development of any of the main characters, but other than that - the ending was as the title says.. so just prepare your hearts and emotions for that.
