I had a mini-preview of this so I already knew what I was
getting into. I already knew it was going to be both emotional and frustrating,
but not in a bad way.
It starts off with the story and point of view of Quinn’s
point of view, she just moved to California with her best friend, Ginger. Her
new roommate also happens to be an actress on a daytime drama. We don’t know
much about Quinn but we do know that she went through something very traumatic.
From there we switch to Chase’s point of view. He’s one of Ginger’s costars who
is dealing with a sense of emptiness and the need to be better. He feels that
he won’t get that, until her meets Quinn.
She’s extremely different from the normal models and
actresses he dates. She showed up to a Hollywood party with old converse, now
neither him nor Quinn wanted a long relationship. All they wanted was a one
night stand. But fate wanted other things.
So I completely ate this story up! It sounds like it might
be cliché but its honestly not. It’s fun and you can completely lose yourself
in Quinn and Chase’s world because it’s written so realistically. I recently
read another book where the main guy was an actor and our leading lady was a
plain jane. It was awful. This was not the case with The Last Thing. Mainly because Quinn was no plain jane, she didn’t
want to be famous but she was still this sassy lovable girl who had an awful
past. Throughout to book were trying to figure out what exactly happened to her.
Chase is your regular player turned homermaker, the difference is that even though he loves Quinn he's realistic about it, and when I read chapters from Chase's point of view he actually sounded like a man not some love struck teenager.
As for side characters, there's not many, its mostly just Ginger and the paparazzi. Ginger was fun and even though she was self-absorbed she still tried her best to be a good friend. I can't wait to read her story and see her point of view.
Overall this is a must read for New-Adult lovers and you
will fall in love with Quinn and Chase.
