Why do you think Higgins chose to tell the story in two perspectives? How would the book differ if told through only the perspective of Josh or Lauren?

What effect do the dual timelines have on the narrative? How do these opposing timelines impact the reader’s understanding of Josh and Lauren as individuals and their relationship?

Why doesn’t Lauren confess her fears about dying in her letters to Josh? Could this be interpreted as dishonest? Use evidence from the text to develop your argument.
