About this deal

Streamlined Performance: The End is straightforward and direct. No unnecessary prompts, no warm-up rounds, no extra procedures or spectators needed to muddy up the impact of the revelation. The second half of the book is, as the title suggests, after. After the judge makes a decision, the author explores two different outcomes: one in which the judge sides with the mother, and one in which the judge sides with the father. It was thought-provoking to examine the ramifications and consequences of either decision. I’m certain anyone who has made such a heart-wrenching decision has moments of doubt and wondering “what-if”. I had them with my elderly parents and know they would be even stronger when it's your child.

I can definitely recommend this book but warn that there are some very descriptive elements of severely ill children which may be hard for some people to read. It is well written and covers a subject which is very pertinent in our world of ever increasing technological developments in the medical field. Matkowski, Lizzie (November 15, 2017).

Max and Pip are a young married couple that thought they had everything going for. Very much in love and with a wonderful son things were good until one day they were’t. These parents get the most devastating news when they find Dylan has a brain tumor. I was planning to give three stars to this book. But I hit my hand( actually I bite my fingers, too) to stop myself and asked me what the hell I'm doing? I know this is not the book I waited for but if it’s best way for the author to share her feeling by ripping a wounded piece from her heart and pouring her insecurities without giving a second thought are the bravest things that not much people can manage.

Prepare to elevate your performances to new heights with The End - a remarkable book test that simplifies the art of mind reading, allowing you to effortlessly reveal your spectators' innermost thoughts. Angelo has ingenuously transformed a known principle to create the most fooling and astonishing experience. Here, through Claire McIntosh’s brilliant writing, we see the two perspectives written in alternating chapters as if the court had decided both ways, for Pip Adam, allowing Dylan to receive Palliative care, then for Max Adams, allowing Dylan to receive alternative treatment.Death calls just after midnight. Mateo and Rufus will die today. They don’t know each other yet, but their paths will cross on this last day of their lives. It took me a while to find the courage to read After The End. When I did, I read it when the house was quiet and it was mostly just me at home so I could be left alone with my thoughts for this one. Once I started, I read it in less than 24 hours and it was all I thought about for a while. Then, it took me a while to find the courage to write this review and then longer to find the words to write. But then again, you can’t walk out of a Silvera book and not feel something. His are the kind of books that hold you tightly you can feel it three days later. The kind of books that will make you dissolve from your sitting position and lay your head on a pillow, missing someone you’ve never met, and feeling like your entire self is one terrible scarlet bruise, throbbing mercilessly. I know people will experience this book in vastly different ways, but I've experienced it in an almost unutterably personal way. I’m starting to think that’s just the Silvera effect.

( October 2022) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message) The author has been through this trial, she lost one of her twin babies more than a decade ago. Perhaps this is why the hospital scenes feel so real, raw and heartbreaking. From a statement by the author: “A key location for AFTER THE END is an Intensive Care Unit. Twelve years ago I spent four months in ICU with my newborn twins. Writing the scenes set in hospital was easy because everything feels still so vivid and clear, all these years later. The beeps and whirrs of the machines, the fluorescent lighting, the smell of the anti-bac gel...a sensory overload I translated into words.” An interesting concept & premise that paves potential for bigger world building (which unfortunately was not explored). I appreciate that this book has emotionally resonated so many people, and that it is centered around queer latinx boys with a healthy and wholesome relationship. I think about all the young boys grappling their sexuality and reading this book and seeing themselves in it, and that means a lot for such a marginalized and underrepresented group.Andreeva, Nellie (January 9, 2023).

Everyone has an opinion, yet the truth is that no one can really know what is right. No one can predict the future, and so all we can do is make a decision based on the facts we have, and—sometimes on what our heart tells us.” This book is the last in A Series of Unfortunate Events, and even if you braved the previous twelve volumes, you probably can't stand such unpleasantries as a fearsome storm, a suspicious beverage, a herd of wild sheep, an enormous bird cage, and a truly haunting secret about the Baudelaire parents. I was prepared for an emotional read but this story hit me harder than I expected. This is not a novel I will soon forget.

Vantage point: Ishmael peered down at the youngest Baudelaire from his vantage point, a phrase which here means "chair perched on a sleigh dragged by sheep." Most of the love stories between the wives and the brothers were no longer as interesting in this book. Mpande’s new love story that's the one I enjoyed. It has been my solemn occupation to complete the history of the Baudelaire orphans, and at last I am finished. You likely have some other occupation, so if I were you I would drop this book at once, so THE END does not finish you. This is a major change of pace novel for this author who writes thrillers. What a feat for her to successfully transition into such a serious and emotional genre. I’m in awe of her talent and look forward to what she comes out with next!Then it uses the "sliding doors" approach to finish the novel, where it explores the outcome of each path-the one in which the court rules in favor of Max-and what he feels is the right decision for his son vs. the course of action which Pip feels is right, and what might transpire if the court rules in her favor. In the story Pip and Max have to contemplate whether they should terminate the life of their terminally ill son, Dylan. Dylan is three years old and is ill with cancer which has left him with brain damage and the medical staff can do no more for him. It is an impossible decision Max and Pip face but a decision that will ultimately change their lives forever. An impossible decision is made worse when they both want different outcomes forcing the need to put the case to the courts. I HATED those side character POVs. They just felt nuisance and kept pulling me out of the story. And what’s more, they weren’t even just a few POVs here and there, they were SO FREQUENT! And almost none of them were connected to either of the boys. Just random people they’ve passed by throughout the day. I found it extremely aggravating. Detritus: This enormous puddle was littered with detritus, a word which here means "all sorts of strange items" Palatable: The younger Baudelaires gave their sister a brief nod, realizing that Violet was asking about wasabi not only because it might allow Sunny to make something palatable—a word which here means "that wasn't ceviche"—but because wasabi, which is a sort of horseradish often used in Japanese food, was one of the few defenses against the Medusoid Mycelium, and with Count Olaf lurking about, she wanted to think about possible strategies should the deadly fungus be let loose from the helmet.
