My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I was given a copy of this ebook from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. All opinions remain my own.
Leah thought that the turmoil in her life had come to an end. That is, until the boy-next-door who’s just moved in, turns out to be none other than her old childhood best friend, Damon. Rekindling their friendship, the two become inseparable and life seems perfect, until Leah learns a tragic secret; Damon is terminally ill and has only one more year to live.
Leah and Damon decide to embark on an adventure to have the time of their lives and cross out every to-do on their ‘Bucket List’. With the clock ticking and time precious, will they be able to complete every goal before time runs out?
It's hard putting into words how I feel about this book. There were times when it was so clique it was almost painful, but then others that were so real and so raw. I have been through the loss of someone I love and the pain is hard to explain. Ruben did a really good job with that.
Some of the things that Leah and Damon did were incredible, some of those stories were almost too much for me. Clique sex on the beach scene, clique dancing in the rain. Just felt like stuff I had heard before.
One thing I did appreciate was that Damon's life ended with his bucket list incomplete. Kind of sums up the whole book.
