The Last Goodbye
by Fiona Lucas
What a hopeful book this is.
This is a story about love, about grief and all the emotions in-between.
When Anna tragically loses her husband she struggles. Every day blending into the next, she never quite comes back to life again .
Until one night when yet again she finds herself dialling Spencer's number yet again (just to hear his voice) only this time someone answers.
That someone is Brody. He too is in the midst of grief, a man filled with sadness and guilt.
Fate or just pure luck?
Either way this seems to be the start of both of them finally moving forward, all it took was for someone to listen, to truly hear what they had to say rather than friends and family who think they know how they should be feeling and acting.
This story was both heartwarming and heartbreaking all at the same time.
Tragically beautiful.
Slow moving, each chapter producing just a little bit more emotion.
Refreshing to read as it didn't rely on drama to make me turn the pages, simply raw, human emotion.
I felt connected and invested in Anna and Brody, both as separate people and as a blossoming couple.
The Last Goodbye is a tale that tugs at the heart strings, quietly compassionate.
Offering so much more than a story of new beginnings, instead looking at how each moment in our lives can change us and shape our lives, and yes that doesn't always mean hearts and flowers, negativity is allowed to. It's how we grow from those sorts of events that really matter.
