I cannot wait to read this book! The cover is gorgeous and holds a bit of intrigue of its own - vivid colors against darkness. I don't think I'd want to know the date of my death, yet wouldn't I fill that time with everything and everyone that makes me happy? I am anxious to discover if the Gold siblings die on the date they were told and how their lives unfold during the ensuing years. Do they live life to the fullest, having believed the old woman, or do they disregard her prophesy and pursue an ordinary life that is still rewarding? I believe this could be one of the most talked about books of the year.
