The Last Time She Saw Him: A Novel by Kate White

mysterious medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No

2.5

The last time she saw him he was alive and seemed to be doing well coping with her breaking off their engagement. But then as everyone is leaving the party, a shot rings out and it appears Jamie has committed suicide. This story follows Kiki as she is determined to find out what really happened. 

While I think the plot is good with some twists, the story reads almost as a stream of consciousness in Kiki’s mind. I also believe too many characters are involved and some time is wasted trying to develop them. 

Thanks to NetGalley for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
