About this item

“The Last Letter is a haunting, heartbreaking and ultimately inspirational love story.“—InTouch Weekly

Beckett,

If you’re reading this, well, you know the last-letter drill. You made it. I didn’t. Get off the guilt train, because I know if there was any chance you could have saved me, you would have.

I need one thing from you: get out of the army and get to Telluride.

My little sister Ella’s raising the twins alone. She’s too independent and won’t accept help easily, but she has lost our grandmother, our parents, and now me. It’s too much for anyone to endure. It’s not fair.

And here’s the kicker: there’s something else you don’t know that’s tearing her family apart. She’s going to need help.

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.

Please don’t make her go through it alone.

Ryan

5.0 out of 5 stars heart wrenching
Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2024
I think this is the first tear jerker military-esque romance novel I have read since I read Dear John in high school and had an OBSESSION with Nicholas Sparks. Let’s start off by saying I began this book and not even 10% in I’m sobbing. I will say my sadness with children did get 10x worse with having my own son so maybe if you weren’t a parent you might be slightly less sad. Ella is a well fleshed out strong character and Beckett is also a great character with many flaws but also well thought out and rounded. I felt even all of the side characters were perfect. The whole story line is very hallmark movie to me and my first book by Rebecca Yarros was Fourth Wing which I was surprised to see was her only fantasy/romantasy series. It took a week to read because of work and I was also doing a buddy read so I had to work around my life. I LOVED this book. I really love any book that makes me feel all of the feelings. I loved Beckett and Ella’s chemistry, I loved his love of her children, I loved his connection with his dog and his teammates. If you are a fan of Nicholas Sparks and their movies or hallmark movies this one is for y’all. It ripped my heart out but also made me laugh and hold my loved ones a little tighter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Crushed in the best way

I wasn’t ready. You won’t be ready. The Last Letter had me crying and tearing my heart apart with every page. I told a gf to read it, then told her not to then told her to definitely read it. If you’re ready for a roller coaster of emotions, read it. If you need to clean out some tear ducts, read it.

No review could’ve prepared me for the amount of tissue boxes (yes boxes) I went through. Rebecca Yarros has done it again with bringing me into a world that I fall in love with only to crush me in the best way possible.

I truly felt I was in the story. I fell in love with each character. I laughed, smiled, cried (clearly a lot) and fell in love with this book.

I was inside the story from the beginning. A great read just very, very sad. One human should not have that much sorrow in their lifetime.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you want your heart ripped out, 10/10 recommend
Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2024
4.5 ????

Personally, I have never shed as many tears over a book as I did this one. It ripped my heart over and stomped on it until it was pulverized. My eyes are aching as I type this review from the tears I shed during this book. I gave it a 4.5 instead of a 5 because I found the storyline to be a little flat at times. It kept me intrigued enough to keep me reading, though. The twist at the end of this book is a twist you will never see coming. Have the tissues ready. Never thought I could cry so much over a fictional story ????

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING!!!!!
Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2024
To anyone who is in need of a good book with lots of ups and downs I highly recommend this one! It is by far the most heart wrenching book I have ever read and you will find yourself laughing and crying throughout the whole thing! Also if you’re interested in audiobooks the narrators for this were incredible! Teddy Hamilton is one of my favorite narrators so I would probably recommend anything he narrates. If you’re on the fence for this just read it I promise you will be so happy you did!

5.0 out of 5 stars Heartbreakingly good!
Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2024
Like plenty of other reviews said, this book is heartbreaking but so good! I was immediately invested within the first few pages. The Characters are so well written, I fell in love with Ella, Beckett, Maisie and Colt. Be prepared to sob though towards the end of the book.. you WILL need tissues! Extra trigger warning if you’re a mom with young kids!

The Last Letter left me feeling like I need an emergency session with my therapist! Can you PLEASE get a warning in there cause my heart wasn’t prepared! Amazing writing and I can get through the military aspect, albeit with some tears, but everything else!? I couldn’t get enough water in me from the amount of sobbing I have done in less than 24 hrs because of this book! Just rip my heart out and serve it on a platter!

5.0 out of 5 stars Such a beautiful, emotional book
Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2024
I will be recommending this book to my co-workers and customers. Beautifully written from beginning to end. Ella and Beckett start out as pen pals. He special-ops, she's a single mom of twins. He falls first. He gets the last letter from his best friend (who is Ella's brother). Beckett comes to Telluride to help Ella with her life. Brother gone, parents gone, raising twins, daughter has a stage 4 cancer. He falls first. We fall second. In love with Beckett. Have tissues ready. I ugly cried at the closing chapters. Would give it 5++++ stars if possible.
