What If It's Us meets They Both Die at the End in this postapocalyptic, queer YA adventure romance from debut author Erik J. Brown. Perfect for fans of Adam Silvera, Alex London, and Heartstopper by Alice Oseman.
When Andrew stumbles upon Jamie’s house, he’s injured, starved, and has nothing left to lose. A deadly pathogen has killed off most of the world’s population, including everyone both boys have ever loved. And if this new world has taught them anything, it’s to be scared of what other desperate people will do . . . so why does it seem so easy for them to trust each other?
After danger breaches their shelter, they flee south in search of civilization. But something isn’t adding up about Andrew’s story, and it could cost them everything. And Jamie has a secret, too. He’s starting to feel something more than friendship for Andrew, adding another layer of fear and confusion to an already tumultuous journey.
The road ahead of them is long, and to survive, they’ll have to shed their secrets, face the consequences of their actions, and find the courage to fight for the future they desire, together. Only one thing feels certain: all that’s left in their world is the undeniable pull they have toward each other.

One of the best dystopian post apocalyptic story ever! I couldn't stop reading! Both the main characters are soooo lovable. When the description said it's a 'What if it's us' meets 'They both die at the end' story, I was wondering okay let's see.. but I'm totally sold because yes it lives upto that expectation. All the thrill, humour, adventure and their love and sadness, You can't help but root for Jamie and Andrew in the midst of whole world falling apart. It was a really great read❤️

Oh this was such an amazing queer YA Romance, even if the subject was something I found triggering (only cause of Covid). But Andrew and Jamie were adorable and their mutual pining had me *chef’s kiss*
