The Last Party Paperback – 20 August 2024

Very intriguing and interesting plot and excellently executed in the writing, engagement and character developments, i love how she portrayed the minds and inner workings of the main characters, offering very unusual insights, loved the pacing as well. Had to pause many times to savor parts. Cant wait to read another by this author.

This book had me hooked right from the start. A.R Torre is becoming a must read author. A married woman becomes obsessed with a man in prison. He has been charged in the brutal deaths of young girls at a slumber party.Perla and Grant and their daughter Sophie seem to have it all. As you learn very quickly, that is the furthest from the truth. Perla is one of the most unhinged characters I have ever met. The author takes us on a roller coaster of a ride. This is not Disneyland.This book is dark, suspenseful, and down right fabulous. I loved the way the story was written and the way it all comes together. One of my top Thrillers of the year.Read it! You won’t be disappointed, buckle up, the ride is about to start!

I'm amazed by the way the author built this incredibly dark and uncomfortable read. Being in Perla's head was crazy and had me in need of a breather more than once. At the same time, I couldn't read fast enough, trying to find out how it all connected, and more importantly, if Sophia would ever remain alive. This is a wild read, and if you have children, it will make you think really hard about what makes a good mother.The storyline is precise and played with my mund. I extrapolated facts, the author clearly sending me where she wanted my psyche at, that's a feeling that doesn't happen to me very often, and I absolutely loved it.This is a book that will haunt me, I'm sure!

Read it in a day because I had to see how the plot would unravel.I sussed out all of the reveals, the clues were all there. Laid out like breadcrumbs to follow.I do love Alessandra’s romance books, and the ones where the romance is a bit twisty, but when she writes as AR Torre, you know you are going on a wild adventure. The Last Party is excellently written. The plot is superbly executed.Perla is such a complex character. Her flaws are clear, nothing is hidden from the reader. The adventure is more about waiting to see just how Alessandra will tie everything up and who will win.I just know that my thriller loving husband will enjoy this book too. Short and punchy chapters, secrets to find but with just the right amount of clues for the reader to self congratulate themselves for figuring it out.Really, really, really good read.

I loved this book . Better than alot of books being released in this genre. Just ordered two more from this author.
