You’ll Be the Death of Me – A Day We Won’t Forget

Three high schoolers rekindle their friendship by skipping class and taking a spontaneous road trip to Boston. It’s the city where they used to hang out as kids, causing harmless trouble and making memories. The drive isn’t just about nostalgia; it’s about holding on to something real before changes.

Book soundtrack

A song that matches the tone/mood of my book is 505 by Arctic Monkeys because the song is slow and gives a mysterious vibe but also gets up beat. It resembles the flow of the book perfectly with the lyrics, speed, and beat/tone. Apart of the song that connects to the book is, “I’m going back to 505, If it’s a seven-hour flight or a 45- minute drive” The song helps affiliate the listener with the emotional tone of the story and the edginess with skipping school, driving to a city and running into a big mystery that will change their lives.

A meme that matches the quote, “That’s a sweet ride for a high school senior. It was the day we skipped the field trip.” From You’ll be the Death of me is the “Road work ahead… uh yeah, I sure hope it does” Vine; it’s a funny and iconic Vine related to being on the road, and it fits the vibe of skipping school and riding around.

This book reminds me of the show Riverdale. The connection between the two of these is that involves a close friend getting murder and the Highschool students try to find out the mystery. Riverdale has a lot more drama and adds other characters stories, add the Book, You’ll be the death of me focuses on the 3 teenagers that came together to figure this out.

One shocking twist that could happen is that one of the three teenagers actually planned the murder and is now framing the other two. this teen wanted revenge for being forgotten and left behind. They’ve been living vicariously through their old memories, longing for the closeness they once had. When that didn’t return, they snapped deciding that if they couldn’t have their friends back, they’d make sure no one else could either. Throughout the story, they maintain just enough decorum to seem innocent.
