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. If you read the blurb, the first 90 pages of the book may be lacking something for you, since you know something the characters can’t know. 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. I thought that the blurb itself kind of spoiled part of that fun, though: there’s very little mystery about let’s call it the central problem of the book. 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. A wonderfully delightful and endlessly swoon-worthy follow-up to her stunningly memorable debut, Red, White & Royal Blue, One Last Stop is an inventive exploration of fear, love, and identity. From the New York Times bestselling author of Red, White & Royal Blue comes a new romantic comedy that will stop readers in their tracks.įor 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.
