A review by roglows
Every Last Word by Tamara Ireland Stone
4.0
More of a 4.5.
This book really resonated with me, in ways I never expected. I learned things about myself - specific, insightful things - and saw situations in the story that have recently played out in my life over the last few years. (And it all seems so strange and uncanny, because I'm about 20 years older than the MC...)
The writing was clear and straightforward; while
I'm a sucker for a good turn of phrase, this benefited from a simpler prose. I enjoyed it. This book really kind of grabbed a hold of my heart and made me fall in love with the main character. I liked that the characters, give or take a few, felt real and non-cliche. I did figure out one of the twists early on, but it didn't detract from the story.
I truly loved this.
