They Both Die at the End

3.5⭐️ I liked the story and the characters, but really disliked the writing style. It's rare that the story and characters are strong enough to hold up against a very awkward-feeling writing style, but it worked well enough here that I finished the book and enjoyed it. The writing just felt very stilted and over-explainy a lot of the time, and took me out of the story. You could never really forget that this was an adult writing from the pov of teens.
