A review by magicbetweenpages
Last Girls by Demetra Brodsky

4.0

I was gifted an eARC copy from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

** Spoiler Alert**

A tale of sisterhood, survival and lies. I really and truly enjoyed this book. It had twists and turns and kept you on your toes from chapter 1.
Blue, Birdie and Honey are sisters who have prepared for the end of the world their whole lives and who would have known that the end of days prep would have turned out the way it did?
It was a really unique story that had my mind racing trying to figure out what would happen next at every turn of the page.

You manage to fall in love with each sister who are each so unique, artists in their own rights. Honey, the eldest who feels the constant need to protect her sisters, who loves to paint. Birdie, middle sister who has fallen in love with a boy who goes missing and Blue, my favorite sister who is true to her name with her cobalt blue hair who loves to embroider and constantly quirks mysterious omens (which turn out to be all accurate in some way or another).

Of course there has to be a bad guy, there always is. Who plots a nationwide disaster just to prove a point. I felt like this plot line was a bit mhe, honestly it could have been executed better and felt a bit like an afterthought.

This book takes you on a journey of fierce protection, sisterly love and a mother who even though misguided was trying her best to keep her girls shielded and protected from the outside world.
