Last One at the Party

I enjoyed this book but it felt a bit too much like Bridget Jones' Apocalypse at times. Sometimes the character felt like she was written in the 90's and all of the other characters fell into well worn cliches (apart from Susan, she's my favourite character by a mile).

This has been a brilliant read! A combination of terrifying, hopeless, hopeful and funny! I loved how our main character (we never learn her name!) learned and grew as the story went on! 

As I mentioned before, I'm not a pet person, but really Lucky was the star of the story. If not for him, our main character would've been dead a long time ago! She had a helping hand from Lucky, but she clearly was strong and brave. I'm not sure how I would've coped in her situation! 

It was heartbreaking, sad, terrifying and just plain awful at times! The humour definitely stopped it from being a truly horrifying read, and of course there's also the fact that she managed to make a life for herself. 

There were some unanswered questions at the end. There is a sequel, so I'm hoping some of these questions will be answered in that.

Thank you to PH and Bethany for the chance to read this brilliant book.
