katieb94 's review for:
The Last Goodbye
by Fiona Lucas
Released 20/12/2020
Received from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
The main premise of this book is grief. And how grief can change people, affect behaviour, and ultimately bring people together.
Anna is grieving her late husband (who died two years before the events of the book start) and the book takes on her journey from New Years Eve two years after, all the way to the following year. Her emotions felt extremely real- I really felt for her.
Grief is dealt with extremely well. Sensitively and carefully as if the character is fragile- which she is.
It’s beautifully written and I found myself getting lost in Anna’s story- and then Brody’s.
I didn’t quite get the flip between the two characters but it definitely help as it also meant we could read about his anxiety.
Also written really well.
It’s not surprising that this book bought out many emotions, it’s covering a very emotional topic.
I really enjoyed this book, and I went it not knowing what it was about but I’m really glad I read it because it’s going to sit with me for a long time.
4/5 stars.
