I so so so adored this book. This is my favourite book series ever. I loved this ending to the series but really wish there were more spinster books, I would love to read even more about my fave trio.

I have never cried as much at a book as I did with this one. I started crying about what was happening in the book then but myself in the shoes of the characters and imagined how I would be in the same situations. After reading so much of the Spinster club pals and getting to know the characters, my heart actually broke for them with all the struggles and changes they are going through.

After all going away to university, the Spinsters are reuniting for a a new years party. Since starting university, the friendship dynamic has shifted a bit and things just aren't the same. Evie, Amber and Lottie are all keeping secrets from each other and going through stuff but keeping it to themselves, rather than sharing with each other. Over the course of one night, they reunited and all is revealed. 

Its only a short book but I kind of wish other characters were mentioned quickly. Its said that Megan is away on an exotic holiday but I wish it said how she really was, after what happened to her in the past. Just a quick paragraph about some of the side characters would have been fab.

I truly loved this book. It made me laugh, it made me cry and made me think. I really appreciate the Spinster Club series and would recommend it to everyone.
