One Last Stop ist ein sehr süßer Roman über Freundschaft, Liebe und Detektivarbeit. Schauplatz ist die NYC Metro. Ich kann nicht glauben dass Casey Mcq einfach eine ganze Welt drum rum erschaffen konnte, es ist wirklich wahnsinnig kreativ. Perfekter Sommerread, da musste ich echt sehr viel lachen denn die Charaktere sind einfach maximal liebenswürdig und eigenartig!

A love story that transcends space and time. 

It’s giving some Jane Austen vibes except queer and in the 21st century. 

Also really appreciate that we get to sit in and experience the feelings of loss, before the happy ending; it makes it all the happier 🥰

It took me quite long to finish this book because, although it was relatively short, it was slow paced and had long chapters. However, I still enjoyed this book and the writing style Casey McQuinston used. The cast of characters was very diverse, which I loved, and they were portrayed in a very real and respectful way. I was recommended this book by a friend and I am glad I read it because I am always down to expand my TBR with sapphic books. I felt satisfied with the ending, and it really made the book for me. The only reason I rated it less than 4 stars is because I am not a big fan of slow paced books (just my personal taste).
