The Last One Home by Victoria Helen Stone

dark mysterious slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

I loved Stone's previous two books Jane Doe and Problem Child (for those who are fans of the Sweet Pea series they're in a similar style) so, I was itching to read this one when I saw it pop up. This is a mixed bag for me, while I enjoyed the last half of it I did find the start to drag a little and found myself almost giving up. I'm glad I didn't because the last 50% was much better paced and gave a nice few twists to keep you thinking. An enjoyable read but I can't help thinking if I hadn't read her first two I may have rated it higher as I was expecting more.
