This book was a wild, creepy, thrilling ride…and I loved it!

The book is about Emma, a  woman isolated in a beach house in the Pacific Northwest. She spends her days reading e-books and gives one a one-star rating. Then she is haunted and hunted, and it could be by the author of the book.

The Last Word is an excellent thriller. It was so eerie at the beginning that I had to read it in the daytime. There are lots of twists, it kept me interested, and it is filled with tension, excitement, and raw emotions. This is my first time reading a book by Taylor Adams and he did not disappoint!
