What an interesting concept! It would not have occured to me to turn to crime in response to a 'final notice', but I think it is a reaction that some people would have. I am excited to check this book out! Great review!

This is a very different and intriguing theme. And this story seems to be a great read. The foretelling of death is something I always wondered. I would love to read the book. Thank you for a great review.

The plot reminds me of a horror movie I've watched which predicts the life span of everyone who downloads an app. However, the difference with this one is, the death that occurs in the book are either natural or man-made. No supernatural deaths involved, so I would really like to read this book.

How nice it would be to get a machine like that in this time period. People get to will their property at will reconcile with whom they would like to and all.

Looking at the book cover, I got the impression that the theme of this book centered around guns. Reading the review confirmed what I suspected. However, there are other interesting sub-plots that this book has. One of them is the tendency of people to abuse something that's meant to serve a greater good. This happens in the real world whenever a new technology is introduced. Kudos to the author for this awesome book.

I am curious to know how people react when they realise that they are about to die. There might be a lot of reactions either good or bad. And I am interested to find out it this watch (that gives people a final notice in regard to their death) was freely given to the citizens or if it was purchased.

I have read this book and I really appreciate the way Van Fleisher decided to look at the controversy surrounding gun ownership especially since it is mostly used to commit crime. About knowing my time am not sure about what I would do. Congrats to the book of the day.

A fictional story about a device that can predict the final days of human lives sounds intriguing. Also, it sounds like a book full of suspense and action.

The idea is fifty percent good and bad. Bidding goodbyes are hard especially for those who are left behind. On contrary, to make ends meet before the time. However, the idea is freaking me out.

While I have no problem with gun ownership, a device that tells me when I'm going to die kind of takes the fun out of life in my opinion. Still, seeing as this book isn't based on reality, I'm willing to give it a try.

This is one of the best books I've read on the controversial topic of gun ownership. The author has created a very plausible scenario to portray sensitive issues while keeping the action and thrill alive throughout the book. This is a must read for anyone interested in the central subject. Thank you for a detailed review.
