God where do I even begin? This made a romance-hater believe in the power of love and found family. Like WHO AM I RIGHT NOW?

There were minor things that kept this from being 5 stars for me, but I still loved it all the same.

Casey McQuiston, thank you for another fantastic read.

Very wholesome and full of wonderful characters that completed the story. I fell in love with all of August's flatmates and their partners, because they had weird but interesting personalities and dynamics. I also enjoyed so much August and Jane's relationship, and specially Jane herself (mainly because I admit she is totally my type so I was weak on the knees since second 1) and her story. I am not that keen about the idealization of New York, customer service works with long changing shifts and low wages, and the time travel stuff that ended up being less complex than I imagined; but that's all right. I adored the little moments in which we could get a glimpse of the queer scene in the 70s and some really important historical events for the community.

It is always a pleasure to read about horny sapphics being unabashedly unhinged, loud and proud.

I’m so upset I didn’t love this. I enjoyed it, but something was just missing for me. I feel like I didn’t really get to know the characters enough and I feel like there interactions weren’t enough. I think for me it was more telling then showing so it was hard for me to connect. I did really like the characters and the found family aspect. This is such an feel good story and like the author says it’s unbury the gays and that’s so important. I also didn’t really love the Syfy element/ magical realism which is my fault. I do recommend it because I did enjoy I just didn’t love it.

Chubby femme bisexual from Louisiana meets effortlessly cool butch Chinese American, except the latter is from the 1970s and is stuck on the subway.  Both August and Jane have bounced around the country looking for a home (and an identity), only to meet in New York in what should have been impossible circumstances.  August had an unconventional childhood surrounded by a neverending investigation into a missing relative, and Jane survived the violence against queer people as a revolutionary in the gay liberation movement.  Of course they fall in love.  With a very diverse cast of characters and a race to save a neighborhood landmark, One Last Stop explores community and queer magic in more ways than one.
