Get ready to die laughing: this is an outrageously funny ride through the last hours of a teenager's life as he searches for love meaning answers and (just maybe) a way to live on.
Denton Little's Deathdate takes place in a world exactly like our own except that everyone knows the day on which they will die. For Denton that's in just two days-the day of his senior prom.
Despite his early deathdate Denton has always wanted to live a normal life but his final days are filled with dramatic firsts. First hangover. First sex. First love triangle-as the first sex seems to have happened not with his adoring girlfriend but with his best friend's hostile sister. (Though he's not totally sure-see first hangover.) His anxiety builds when he discovers a strange purple rash making its way up his body. Is this what will kill him? And then a strange man shows up at his funeral claiming to have known Denton's long-deceased mother and warning him to beware of suspicious government characters. . . . Suddenly Denton's life is filled with mysterious questions and precious little time to find the answers.
