The Last Letter: The bestselling small-town romance sensation that will break your heart from the million copy bestselling author of Forth Wing (cover ... (Heartbreaking romances from Rebecca Yarros)

I loved this book, the way the story unfolded with its twists and turns. I’ve never full on cried whilst reading a book - this one made me! No spoiler here but the way Yarros writes about the ‘event’, is so considered and heart wrenching. You become fully invested in this story and the characters. Highly recommended.

If I could give this book 10 stars, I would. Nothing could prepare me for those final few chapters. Wow, this book hit me everywhere and I felt everything. I'm emotionally wrecked but in the best way, if that's even possible. I bought this book on offer at 99p and it was the best thing I ever did. I probably would've bought it even if it wasn't on offer. The blurb just called out to me as soon as I read it. I can't remember the last time a book made me feel the way I feel now. A little lost, a little broken, and everything in between. I loved this book so much. It was way too sad and emotional in parts but it really made the book what it was. It was heartbreaking at times but I still would have read it. This book will be with me forever, I feel like I'm stuck in this story still, with the amount I cried, it doesn't feel real. Beautifully written and one of the most powerful books I've written in a while.

This book was beautiful and emotional and I really need to stop reading books that make me full on sob. I adored Ella and Beckett's relationship and how it evolved throughout the story. The addition of their letters at the start of each chapter added so much depth and meaning, although at times I did struggle to keep the timeline straight because the letters were revealed in order of relevance to each chapter's events, rather than chronologically. The whole truth coming out / breakup disaster between them towards the end was frustrating, but their actions were believable within the context of their separate traumas, and I think it was handled pretty well. My favourite aspect of the book was getting to see Beckett come to love the twins and take up the role of father figure in their lives - it had me tearing up multiple times. Also just in general the found family vibe of Ella's Solitary crew were immaculate. I'd like a job in a place like that. But then the last 10% ripped out my heart and stomped it into a million pieces and I just don't understand why it was necessary? Maybe that was the whole point, but I just...I can't give it a full 5* after that. Would recommend if you need a good cry.

This is such a great book. It is very well written. The characters feel so real. It is a very touching book and really stays with you after you've read it still pondering if you would have done things that the characters did and in that way. It's such a sensitive book around relationships. I loved it.

Absolutely unputdownable! An incredible story that pulls all the emotions! It's beautifuly written and is a captivating story so worth a read

The Last Letter completely broke me in the best and worst ways possible. I'm not sure if it was my own experience of having people leave when you have a young child, the longing to be loved and have someone stand beside you through life's battles, or the fact that I've come from failed relationships and could relate to the characters simply being "content" with what they had. Whatever it was, this story hit me deeply. I genuinely struggled to read this book, not because it wasn't good, but because I spent so much of it crying. Rebecca Yarros takes your heart, pulls it out, and stomps all over it. The emotional journey is intense, raw, and unforgettable. The connection between Ella and Beckett is beautiful from the very beginning. Their long-distance friendship is filled with warmth, hope, and all the feelings you could imagine. Watching their relationship grow while they navigate life's ups and downs was both inspiring and heartbreaking. Their love, resilience, and strength carry them through unimaginable challenges, making their story even more powerful. *The Last Letter* is devastatingly beautiful, heart-wrenching, and packed with emotion. It left me in tears more times than I can count, but it was absolutely worth every page. I 100% recommend reading this book—just make sure you have plenty of tissues nearby because you're going to need them.

I am not okay! I'm not even sure where to start with this one - I feel emotionally wrecked. I read the warnings, I knew what I was letting myself in for - yet, here I am - still sobbing! The Last Letter is a beautiful, heartbreaking story about Ella and Chaos. Ella a small town single Mum, raising 5 year old twins by herself in her mid-twenties whilst also running a set of cabins in the mountains. Then there's her penpal - Chaos, a military man on deployment, a lone wolf apart from his best friend Ryan, Ella's brother. Chaos receives Ryan's last letter, the letter sent after you pass. With instructions to go to Ella and look after her and the children through their grief, Chaos leaves the military and devotes himself to being available for anything Ella needs. There's just one thing - she has no idea he is Chaos. I truly did not want this book to end. I could have kept on reading forever. That's the only negative - it ended! This will for sure be on my top 5 of 2026. Everyone needs to read this at least once.

Not many characters which makes it easy to follow. A great book about love and loss. Some moments are particularly gripping and emotive. Love how this book moved me. I have just bought another book from this Author as I enjoyed the story and style of writing so much!

I went into this book totally blind, it was one I had agreed to buddy read with some people, the author has been on my radar for a couple of years now...I don't live under a rock! But I just hadn't picked any of her books up yet. I was immediately caught up in this book, I loved the letter exchanges with Ella and Chaos and found myself smiling as I was reading them as they were getting to know each other. In the back of my mind I was trying to prepare myself for the moment when the letters may stop... clearly I didn't prepare myself enough as that had me tearing up. It was such an engaging read that once Beckett came on the scene and started developing a friendship with Ella I was having all the loved up feels and a bit of a crush on Beckett myself. This was such a compelling read it had me feeling a complete range of emotions far deeper than I expected to I smiled, ugly sobbed and literally had a moment where I was crying so hard I couldn't hold the book in my hands. It's one of those books that will forever stay with me and gave me all the feels I had when reading Bridges of Madison County and The Notebook. It was so much more layered than just a romance read, it had trauma, fun moments and devastating moments. It showed the unbreakable bonds people form through shared trauma and loyalties with strong messages about forgiveness, survival and the healing power of unconditional love, family and also found family. This will definitely be one of my most memorable reads of 2026. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #thelastletter #rebeccayarros #pentransworld #amazon #goodreads #litsy #thestorygraph #tea_sipping_bookworm #fable #bookqueen #bookstagram

Książka poniszczona, zagięte brzegi

Al principio, La última carta me resultó algo confusa, y el drama intermedio de Ella me pareció excesivo. Sin embargo, la estructura de cartas y la emotividad fueron creciendo. Los personajes brillan, aunque Ella me parecía demasiado dramática hasta el tramo final. Beckett, por su parte, es entrañable, aunque roza lo idealizado. Al llegar al desenlace, la autora reivindica todo: el drama final es poderoso y justificado. Pasé del escepticismo a la admiración, de cuatro a cinco estrellas.

Kindle. Though I found a little bit weird to write letters to someone you don’t know, it was a beautiful story. I enjoyed it very much and shed one or two (or a thousand) tears. Read the trigger warnings because as a mother of a little one some parts were heavy and heart-breaking.

Good read. No tears was shed
