A review by bellatomreads
The Last Family in England by Matt Haig

4.0

TW for book: suicide, infidelity, death of animals.


This was a humourous, astute and heartbreaking book in equal measures. Like in a Shakespearean tragedy, you can sense the inevitability of the ending throughout, but it still catches you off guard somehow.
Matt Haig explores the meaning of family, loyalty, love and tradition, and delivers this in a simple narrative through the unusual perspective of the Judge family's dog, Prince.
This books reads fast, but I think it will stay with me a while.
