A review by jnnorton
The Last Forever by Deb Caletti

2.0

Ok so I’m sure this book deserves more than two stars but I went into it expecting a fluffy cute romantic story but got a greased over love story side plot and a main story of grief. I picked up this book for a fun and happy read but obviously that’s not what I got and being the person I am once I start a book I have to finish it. I can honestly say it’s the worst ya book I’ve ever read. Probably because I can’t relate to it as much and I am very grateful I can’t relate to it because it is about grief but even if I could it was sooooooo slow. There were some secrets that I was wondering what the answers were but once I found out the excitement lasted for exactly two pages. And the big plot twist totally destroyed the love interest which again is why I was reading the book. Mainly I’m mad at the summary for making it seem like a romance book. It is not. I repeat it is not a romance book!!!!! It is a story about grief and getting over the loss of a mother!!!!!!!! And even when there was romantic development it was totally skimmed over and all of a sudden a month has passed and their dating!!! I want the fluff!!!!!!

So basically I’m sure you would love this book if you have lost someone in the past but don’t go into it expecting romance.
