About this deal

In the last part of the novel, there is a journalist girl who has to come up with a story of about 40 to 50 years ago, and when she goes through the archives of the library of the newspaper company she works for, she finds the same letters and while doing her job, she tries to bring these separated people together

Ellie and Jennifer’s stories of passion, adultery and loss are wound together in this richly emotive novel – interspersed with real ‘last letters’. Or another great part of a letter, "...know this at least: that somewhere in this world is a man who loves you, who understands how precious and kind and clever you are. A man who has always loved you and, suspects he always will." If I ever hide something from you, it’s because I’m terrified to risk losing you. That whole roller-coaster thing? I’ve never felt like this. Never had my heart leave my body and belong to someone else. I don’t know how to have a relationship, and I’m bound to screw this one up.” While the Netflix film adaptation stays fairly true to the book’s plot, some elements are different. In the novel, Ellie has a difficult affair with a married man named John, who does not appear in the movie. Instead, Ellie is recovering from a rough breakup and has a sweet love interest named Rory (Nabhaan Rizwan) who works in the archives department of her newspaper. Their romance heats up as he helps her hunt for the love letters between Jennifer and “B.”Lang, Brent (28 October 2019).

But if I could emote the beauty in her words, and how well she flowed, I'd be proud to have been able to share that much. With a fractured soul and a broken heart, I can tell you I won't recover from this one anytime soon. It's almost a hollow, sad feeling in my chest - resigned....as if I went through this entire ordeal myself, and I have no recourse. I'm tired and I feel like I could sleep for a week straight. But again, the power in Rebecca's words are written with the tears falling down my face.Both seem likeable, but I must admit I missed out on their love story. I was more interested in the relationship between him and the twins, and mostly my attention was monopolized by the little girl’s illness. It has to be said that the author doesn’t spare us anything: diverse medical examinations, chemotherapy, hair lost, vomiting, general infection, surgery… not to forget awkward reaction by random people. I hope for the author her knowledge comes only from research. I loved the twins relationship, they were simply precious! RY really knows how to write a child’s character, one that you simply fall in love with. Of course she has six children, so she has lots of experience. NETFLIX ACQUIRES MOST OF WORLDWIDE RIGHTS TO "THE LAST LETTER FROM YOUR LOVER" ". 28 October 2019 . Retrieved 28 October 2019. The author actually wrote this before her bestselling ‘Me Before You’ and the movie of the same name. Jojo Moyes is a masterful storyteller and I thoroughly enjoyed The Last Letter from Your Lover. I highly recommend it!

Recommend it? Absolutely if you are looking for gorgeous stories bashing your little heart again and again. If you hate angsty reads …abstain! THE LAST LETTER: Is a full length romance novel by new to me author Rebecca Yarros. Spoken in ‘Dual POV’s. But: in the last ten percent she had to deal with another loss, one that totally blindsided the reader - it came completely out of no-where and added nothing to the story or the character growth. And that made me so freaking mad, I can't even. This last tragedy was added only for tragedy's sake, for it to become a sobfest and I really think it was a cheap shot only for the benefit to make more money.Second point that I didn’t like: it’s written in the first person POV, and those who know me know that I don’t like that. Here we alternate between the hero and the heroine, at a rate of one chapter each in general, with one of the letters they exchanged during the months before their meeting as a chapter opening. The name of the character who’s going to speak may be written as a chapter header, it took me several lines to determine who was “I”. 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.
