3.5

A time travel sapphic romance set on the New York City subway. If that’s not something you need in your life, I don’t know what is!

Not long after reading Red, White and Royal Blue, I delved into One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston, hoping to scratch the itch it had left in its wake. And it did that, to some extent. I will be upfront in saying that I did not fall in love with this book like I did Red, White and Royal Blue, but I still enjoyed making my way through it...
