Sixteen-year-old physics nerd Aysel is obsessed with plotting her own death. With a mother who can barely look at her without wincing, classmates who whisper behind her back, and a father whose violent crime rocked her small town, Aysel is ready to turn her potential energy into nothingness.

There's only one problem: She's not sure she has the courage to do it alone. But once she discovers a website with a section called Suicide Partners, Aysel's convinced she's found her solution--a teen boy with the username FrozenRobot (aka Roman), who's haunted by a family tragedy, is looking for a partner.

Even though Aysel and Roman have nothing in common, they slowly start to fill in each other's broken lives. But as their suicide pact becomes more concrete, Aysel begins to question whether she really wants to go through with it. Ultimately,she must choose between wanting to die and trying to convince Roman to live so they can discover the potential of their energy together.

This is a gorgeously written and compulsively listenable novel about the transformative power of love, heralding the arrival of an extraordinary new voice in teen fiction, Jasmine Warga.

I would definitely "read" this book again and again and again. Amazing characters, amazing story. As expected, the rain washed away all the dirt, but the suspension goes on and on. And finishing this today -April 4th- of all day just make this story comes to life, make me ask myself, where am I in this story? or hundreds of stories like this? I would definitely "read" the last chapter again on April 7th. For all Romans and Aysels.

Will "reread" this on April 7th.

Absolutely beautiful. I couldn't get enough of this story, and I only want to know more about Roman and Aysel.

Wow.

Excellent narration. I really liked how the author kept you hanging on to find out truly what the father's actual crime was. I also liked the end result.

Good Story

Rebecca Lowman portrays the characters in a way I can only imagine Jasmine Warga imagined them. I had the perfect picture of what was happening the whole time with all of the details. Amazing.

Breathtaking

The performance was good and the reader didn’t make it super dramatic.
The story was good but had so much more potential. It was a good read/listen but it could have been better. A little edgy too. You can tell it’s more of a teen/ young adult book.

Was just good

Aysel feels the dark sludge of depression daily and seeks a friend for the end of the world on a suicide partners' website. The story is honest, real and ultimately hopeful. There's depth to this one, tying together the theories of kinetic and potential energy through a school project, the pact, the future of the hero/heroine, and surrounding family. Well written in an introspective, detailed teen angst manner. Loved it and Rebecca Lowman is amazing.

Depressingly Delightful

All performance stuff aside, I want to rant a little about the story itself.

(SPOILERS)

So the beginning of the story was really intriguing. The sole focus was mental illness and suicide , which is primarily why I wanted to hear the story. Not because I'm an evil person who likes people committing suicide, but because I like stories that make me cry and sad for whatever reason .

Anyways, when the main character falls in love , I was still kind of interested in the story . but after a while I felt like it was much more about a love story and not so much about the original plot

I mean, where was the meeting with her dad? That was what I was waiting for. This problem that was set up as important and life changing and I felt like it was brushed off as nothing.

(SPOILER ALERT)
