They made August feel loved – and that just hit. I wanted to know more and more about them – and got that – without it taking away from August’s story. Found family is one of my favourite tropes and it was utilised perfectly here. She didn’t just change quickly, it was nice and slow and worked perfectly with the novel.Īugust’s housemates added another 10 layers to this novel. Her growth throughout the novel was so damn good. What did you think of them?Ī: August character arc was seriously spot on. They are all just such weird and wonderful characters and the relationships they all have with one another are so lovely and pure. I absolutely adore her housemates as well, particularly Myla. She’s such an interesting and layered character and I loved how we got to see her go from this quite closed-off person in the beginning to this completely different one by the end.
What are your feelings about August?Į: I also loved August. She was different and stood out, but also felt very familiar. From the start, she captivated me and I didn’t want to leave her story. There were just a few things that just stopped me from falling head over heels obsessed with it.įirstly I think August was the perfect protagonist for this story. And like you said One Last Stop it’s incredible. It was certainly different and it was incredible, but I still can’t decide!Ī: I feel the same. I loved it, but I can’t decide whether I loved it more than RWRB or less. How did you feel about it?Įly: Honestly, I feel a little conflicted. And it’s not something that I normally gravitate to in regards to science fiction and time travel. It’s different from Red, White and Royal Blue for sure. And let me tell you it didn’t disappoint me at all.
I adored Red, White and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston, which was actually one of our first buddy read discussions. One Last Stop:Īngel: Like I said this book is one of my most anticipated reads of 2021. Maybe it’s time to start believing in some things, after all.Ĭasey McQuiston’s One Last Stop is a magical, sexy, big-hearted romance where the impossible becomes possible as August does everything in her power to save the girl lost in time. She’s literally displaced in time from the 1970s, and August is going to have to use everything she tried to leave in her own past to help her. August’s subway crush becomes the best part of her day, but pretty soon, she discovers there’s one big problem: Jane doesn’t just look like an old school punk rocker. Jane with her rough edges and swoopy hair and soft smile, showing up in a leather jacket to save August’s day when she needed it most. Dazzling, charming, mysterious, impossible Jane. And there’s certainly no chance of her subway commute being anything more than a daily trudge through boredom and electrical failures.īut then, there’s this gorgeous girl on the train.
She can’t imagine how waiting tables at a 24-hour pancake diner and moving in with too many weird roommates could possibly change that. For cynical twenty-three-year-old August, moving to New York City is supposed to prove her right: that things like magic and cinematic love stories don’t exist, and the only smart way to go through life is alone.
