A review by quirkycynic
Last Woman Standing by Amy Gentry

3.0

The only thing I can say is that I really wish the author had set this in any setting other than the stand-up comedy world, so that I'd have to be spared pages and pages of cringeworthy jokes by someone who is literally (as a plain statement of objective fact) not a comedian. The book was pretty good otherwise, with a really good ramp-up of tension throughout, a terrific twist, and very satisfying integration of topicality that rounded off some of the labored writing in places. The metoo movement and suspense fiction are a match made in heaven, obviously, and this is a good example of it, but it's not an instant classic.
