Read as Last Night with the word Just being removed from the title in the UK.  Contaibs SPOILERS. A sad story centering on a group of friends but mainly from Eves point of view. It's not a traditional rom com as it's a story of grief, and loss, and working through friendship relationships. A tad rushed in parts, with some story lines not explored, such as Eves relationships with her parents/brother and how her relationship with Fin went from getting to know to love in a few pages, and likewise her disillusionment with Ed felt rushed. However it is beautifully written. If you are looking for a traditional rom com then this is probably not for you. But a fantastic writer that I will be reading more of.
