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. Main characters Lucy and Ben are struggling to cope with their sorrow after Trixie, Lucy’s best friend and Ben’s sister, suddenly passes.

This story is gorgeous and intense; it broke my heart a hundred times before slowly and satisfyingly piecing it back together.
From Katy's list on the magic (and angst) of first love.
