Crying happy lesbian tears as I write this review since I just finished reading (mind my "just finished reading" bias). One Last Stop is such a lovely and wonderful book. It was silly and relatable and emotional and so human. Any serious topic it approached, it did with grace and realness. This is the second Casey McQuinston book I've picked up and then finished within 24 hours. Her writing isn't ever too flowery or too straight forward, and although there were a few times I felt like I was reading a Tumblr interaction in terms of dialogue, it was never not good. If you want a sapphic romance that was written with pride and admiration for queer culture, this is the book for you. I don't care how unrealistic some aspects (aside from the whole stuck in time bit) of this book were, it made me so happy to read queer people living happy in their skin. The actual relationship was really nicely made too and anytime I thought McQuinston was going to pull a trope I didn't like (

like a third act breakup that thank god didn't happen- we love healthy communication

), she would steer it into a much better plot point or conversation. I think I'm rambling at this point but seriously, if you want an upbeat, sapphics are allowed to be happy, queer people are amazing and resilient kind of book, this one is for you.

Come for the L, stay for the BTQ+.

For real, I thought the side characters were a bit more interesting than the main characters
