One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


After hearing from several friends who I trust to give recommendations, I decided to give One Last Stop a try. After the first couple of chapters, I really wasn’t feeling much for the book or the characters. And I wasn’t looking forward to following a bunch of 20-somethings around for a few hundred pages. But then the story got rolling and I got a bit more into the Jane story. Then I was hooked.

One Last Stop is a unique story with characters I eventually came to care quite a bit about. I don’t think I’ve ever read anything like this before. I mean, there’s a bit of almost every part of the LGBTQIA+ spectrum – which was nice and refreshing – and there’s a very interesting and well done fantasy/sci-fi thing going on that I had a hard time calling BS on since it was done so well.

Speaking of well done, the dialogue, storytelling, humor, pacing, and writing style was damn near perfect for me. I haven’t highlighted so much in a romance book in a long time. I hope Ms. McQuiston keeps the books coming!
