Last One at the Party
Last One at the Party: the most original and unforgettable debut of 2021 | Bethany Clift
6 posts | 6 read | 5 to read
THE END OF EVERYTHING WAS HER BEGINNING It's December 2023 and the world as we know it has ended. The human race has been wiped out by a virus called 6DM ('Six Days Maximum' - the longest you've got before your body destroys itself). But somehow, in London, one woman is still alive. A woman who has spent her whole life compromising what she wants, hiding how she feels and desperately trying to fit in. A woman who is entirely unprepared to face a future on her own. Now, with only an abandoned golden retriever for company, she must travel through burning cities, avoiding rotting corpses and ravenous rats on a final journey to discover if she really is the last surviving person on earth. And with no one else to live for, who will she become now that she's completely alone?

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new. Don‘t judge me - I have a lot of books. Join in if you want!

Meh. Apart from the direct references to Covid-19 there just wasn't much here that I haven't seen before in post-apocalyptic, virus fiction but it did give me my first #bookspinbingo @TheAromaofBooks

vivastory Hope you are well, Moray! I thought of you earlier today as I was browsing the Folio site 3y
Moray_Reads @vivastory I'm doing well, hope you are too. Parents are both vaccinated with their first doses and Scotland is heading towards the end of our stay at home order. Hoping for brighter days ahead! 3y
vivastory I'm so glad to hear that! Hopefully you'll be vaccinated soon! 3y
BarbaraBB Glad to hear that you and the UK are doing well Moray. I still have a Scotland trip planned (canceled last autumn) and hope we‘ll be able to go this year!! 3y

These are my February reads. The tagged book was my favourite, closely followed by Eve Brown. The rest were really only okay for me.

This was great, it gave me such a book hangover!

One woman is left alive after a global pandemic in 2023. What will she do? How will she cope?

The author acknowledges the timing of this release, though it was started before the Covid-19 pandemic. I hope that the book does well regardless as I thought it was excellent.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Book 10 of 2021.

I‘ve got a few days holiday coming up and, whilst I‘ve got lots of jobs in the house to get done, I‘m going to enjoy some quality reading time!
