Leonard Peacock has a mission.
On his 18th birthday he has decided to murder his former best friend and then himself.
Before that, he wants to give the only 4 friends he really has one last gift to remember him by.
The story follows him giving these gifts to his four friends and proceeds to talk about why these friends meant the most.
That writing was a little bland for me and i didn't feel as emotionally invested as i though i would until half way through the novel.
I did manage to finish in one day.
I did enjoy how people weren't completely oblivious to Leonard when he starts giving his presents.
Completely realistic in my eyes as how people can tell something isn't right but still let you stroll on as if things are.
And i really loved that they even made notice that he did have the characteristics of a suicidal person.
towards the end of the book when i finally was emotionally attached, i couldn't stop crying.
Not being emotionally invested in Leonard and how the story ended were a bigger reason as to why i gave this 3.5 stars, but overall i enjoyed this book.

Dannie Kohan is a lawyer with a five-year plan. Her life is all calculated. She's just had the job interview she's been planning for, she's engaged: everything is on track. But when she falls asleep, she's transported for one hour into a different life, the same night five years in the future (2025). In that life, she has a different ring on her finger in a different apartment--and with a different guy by her side. When she wakes up, she can't shake that it wasn't just a dream. She tries to forget that hour, until she meets that same man, four and a half years later. What does it mean?
This book is best gone into blind, but I will say that I really enjoyed this one. It's a fast read with excellent characters--I quite liked Dannie, who is nuanced and flawed, but real. The premise is interesting, as is the fact that that one hour basically changes Dannie's whole life. This novel is sad, at times, truly touching, and completely captivating. I definitely recommend it. 4 stars.
