Why read it?

1 author picked The Last Thing You Said as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The Last Thing You Said is one of those romances for which a happy ending feels utterly impossible—until its final pages.

This story is gorgeous and intense; it broke my heart a hundred times before slowly and satisfyingly piecing it back together.
