A review by eve_reads
The Last Thing He Told Me by Laura Dave

emotional hopeful mysterious medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

Overall Thoughts:
  • The "mystery" element of this novel felt half-baked and a little unbelievable. If there was a greater build-up to the big reveal, I might have found it more convincing.

  • I was initially attracted to this book because the summary made it seem like the relationship between the main character and her step-daughter would be a main focus (ya'll know I'm a sucker for cross-generational female friendships). That was definitely present, but not as heavily as  I wanted it to be. 

  • I enjoyed the narration of the audiobook! Rebecca Lowman's voice is very soothing and I could listen to this before bed or early in the morning without feeling irritated XD
