The Last Letter

A Novel

By: Rebecca Yarros

Narrated by: Teddy Hamilton, Jennifer Stark

“The Last Letter is a haunting, heartbreaking and ultimately inspirational love story.“ (InTouch Weekly)

Beckett,

If you’re reading this, well, you know the last-letter drill. You made it. I didn’t. Get off the guilt train, because I know if there was any chance you could have saved me, you would have.

I need one thing from you: get out of the army and get to Telluride.

My little sister Ella’s raising the twins alone. She’s too independent and won’t accept help easily, but she has lost our grandmother, our parents, and now me. It’s too much for anyone to endure. It’s not fair.

And here’s the kicker: there’s something else you don’t know that’s tearing her family apart. She’s going to need help.

So if I’m gone, that means I can’t be there for Ella. I can’t help them through this. But you can. So I’m begging you, as my best friend, go take care of my sister, my family.

Please don’t make her go through it alone.

Ryan

1 Million % Worth A Credit

It is rare that I write a review for any book even when I like it. This book sucked me in from the very first page, and I just could not stop listening. It made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me introspective, it made me appreciate life, it made me question life, it made me long for more.

I think it depends on what you’re looking for in a book. I am always looking for something different. Just a good story that makes me feel some kind of way. The narration is great. The performance was great. The story was great. I will definitely seek out more from this author and these narrators.

Did Not Like Elle

First, I want to address all the ☆☆☆☆☆ reviews that didn't like the storyline. If you don't like a story don't give it a high review.
I hated many actions of the protagonist, she was very self righteous and selfish. There is absolutely no price too much to pay fot the situation she was in. She constantly put her needs above the childrens.
An amazingly high number of people were upset because the book had real life in it. The book does get heavy, it's not a cut and paste romance. The author absolutely does not deserve ther vitriol she recieved. It's a beautifully written book about everything going wrong yet orbiting⁸

This one will stay with me forever

Do it! Hit the button and listen to this one! It left me wrecked but in the best kind of way. Taking you through ups and downs with literally every chapter which is rare to find. There’s always those books with their bland moments or “filler” chapters and this book is NOT that. It’s amazing and earth shattering.

Never have I felt more immersed in a book!

This was one of if not the best book I have ever read. the highs and lows felt sonreap and I felt like I was actually living their lives with them. unpredictable and such a great read. Just really wow!

Just speechless

It's been a long time since I've read a book that has gutted me so completely like this one did.
I listened to it on audio which I think magnified all of my feelings.
How does it never fail that the most gut-wrenching parts of the audio book happen on my way to work?
The audio book was fantastic. Two very quality narrators that made this an experience rather than just a story being told.
From the blurb, you see that this is a story of a single mom raising twins and has faced more tragedy than a person should endure. I can't understand how some people wind up with all the bad luck, but it does. Ella is a fierce, strong heroine. Beckett comes to help her out as her brother's dying wish. Now, I hate for this to be vague but it's for the best. There is so much stuff that happens during this story that you better buckle right up. As much as I sort of cursed the author, I reveled in the brilliance of her writing. Suspense, twists, emotions. I haven't felt so completely shattered in such a long time.
