Una última parada by Casey McQuiston

bookschaosnart's review against another edition

5.0

A complete 180 from Casey McQuiston's debut Red, White, & Royal Blue less glamour and unlimited funds and more skating by the skin of your teeth trying to make it in life while still enjoying life. But it's also just as well written with similar overall vibes of embracing queerness and uniqueness and timely humor. June and August's love story is beautiful and wonderful. It's a great second novel and I hope it receives as much acclaim and accolades.

3.5. читала до непристойності довго. проте що сподобалось: плот-твісти яких я не очікувала від слова взагалі, і настільки комфортні персонажі, що час від часу я хотіла опинитись серед них і обійматись впродовж годин. з мінусів те, що, як на мене, було затягнуто. ніби-то всі лінії, бексторі і діалоги в тему, та без них нічого особливо і не змінилось.

This book is just fun. I had such a good time reading it!
 
I was skeptical at the length (after all, the premise didn’t seem to need a book too much beyond 300ish pages, yknow?) but I didn’t even mind because any “lulls” in the plot were filled with fun banter by diverse and hilarious characters. I actually found my self laughing out loud. 

This is my first read by this author and I am absolutely picking up the rest of her books. I loved Jane and August, her witty roommates, the Queen next door, Noodle the Poodle, the mystery of Jane, August’s relationship with her mom. It’s a fantastically fleshed out, found-family story that I haven’t stopped thinking about days later. 

There’s a perfect description in the acknowledgments… if “a lesbian time travel subway romcom” sounds intriguing to you, then you must pick up One Last Stop!
