‘Two best friends。 One missed chance。 And a night that changes everything。’ - cover tag line。 My thanks to HarperCollins U。K。 for an eARC via NetGalley of ‘Last Night’ by Mhairi McFarlane in exchange for an honest review。While I don’t often read romantic comedies， I have loved Mhairi McFarlane’s previous novels and so had confidence that this would also prove a great read。 I read it with little foreknowledge about the plot and was glad that I read ‘cold’， so I will only touch on its plot。Eve and ‘Two best friends。 One missed chance。 And a night that changes everything。’ - cover tag line。 My thanks to HarperCollins U。K。 for an eARC via NetGalley of ‘Last Night’ by Mhairi McFarlane in exchange for an honest review。While I don’t often read romantic comedies， I have loved Mhairi McFarlane’s previous novels and so had confidence that this would also prove a great read。 I read it with little foreknowledge about the plot and was glad that I read ‘cold’， so I will only touch on its plot。Eve and Susie have been friends since primary school。 Then in the sixth form they met Ed and Justin and the four have been friends ever since。 Now in their early 30s they meet up weekly for a pub quiz night。 However， Eve has been secretly in love with Ed since they were eighteen though he’s been in a relationship with another woman for sixteen years and they have just announced their engagement。 So， Eve loves from afar。 Yet one night， in an instant， all of their lives are changed forever。 This proved a more serious novel than I had expected though was deeply moved by its themes。 Yet while there are bittersweet aspects there was also humour and uplifting elements。 I found myself especially relating to Eve’s Gothic identity with her love of rain and “evocative ruined abbeys”。 Once I started reading I was completely captivated and read in a single sitting。 。。。more

I loved this book！ Once I got into it I read most of it in a day。 It’s simultaneously sad， hilarious and romantic- which in my opinion is a great combination。 It deals with some quite heavy stuff but it does so in a way that’s truthful but not too depressing。 I also feel like the romance in it is very self aware and it actually challenges some of the problematic ideas associated with romantic stories。 In that way I feel like it has a similar message to ‘he’s just not that into you’， but it’s tol I loved this book！ Once I got into it I read most of it in a day。 It’s simultaneously sad， hilarious and romantic- which in my opinion is a great combination。 It deals with some quite heavy stuff but it does so in a way that’s truthful but not too depressing。 I also feel like the romance in it is very self aware and it actually challenges some of the problematic ideas associated with romantic stories。 In that way I feel like it has a similar message to ‘he’s just not that into you’， but it’s told in a much more realistic， insightful and honest way。 It’s much less predictable than your typical romance as well， it didn’t go the way I thought it was going to and I ended up being glad about it。 The twist at the end was also very unexpected， if not quite sad， and really made me reevaluate what had gone on。 It did leave a bit of a bitter sweet tinge to the book and my one criticism is that she could have possibly dealt with it in a bit more depth， but then again that wasn’t what the book was ultimately about。 I also felt it dealt with grief in a really careful but genuine way。 I’ve never lost anyone that close to me， but the way it was written allowed me to understand what that might be like。 At the same time， the grief doesn’t overwhelm the book and it’s actually quite uplifting。 But the romance！ I loved it and I’m already flicking back through to re-read some of the witty conversations。 I’ve also been listening to “catch” by the Cure and swooning over the vivid picture McFarlane creates。 I’ve never read any of her books before but I will be sure to read more！ 。。。more

Boy， was this an emotional one！ More than I was expected。 While the plot is completely different， it evokes some similar feelings to Meet Me in Paradise。 With heavy themes of grief and what it means to know someone， this one has the potential to be a tear jerker。 But it is also a romance， and has some humorous moments。 I will say that this book surprised me。 I thought I knew what was happening/going to happen and then the book proved me wrong twice。 TWICE！ I love books that can surprise me witho Boy， was this an emotional one！ More than I was expected。 While the plot is completely different， it evokes some similar feelings to Meet Me in Paradise。 With heavy themes of grief and what it means to know someone， this one has the potential to be a tear jerker。 But it is also a romance， and has some humorous moments。 I will say that this book surprised me。 I thought I knew what was happening/going to happen and then the book proved me wrong twice。 TWICE！ I love books that can surprise me without seeming implausible， and this one accomplished that。 I don't want to say too much and spoil a beautiful story that thrives on the element of surprise。 TW/CWs for grief， death of loved one， and child abuse （physical）。 Thank you to William Morrow and NetGalley for my eARC！ All thoughts and opinions are my own。5 stars - 9/10 。。。more

Last Night is one of those stories that completely consumes you from the very beginning and makes it impossible to think of anything else but the characters within this emotionally driven story。 I have been a fan of Mhairi's for quite some time now， and every book she releases is refreshing and totally different from the last。 Last Night is full of heartache and drama， with an added dose of laugh out loud moments intertwined throughout。 I found myself really rooting for Eve from the very beginni Last Night is one of those stories that completely consumes you from the very beginning and makes it impossible to think of anything else but the characters within this emotionally driven story。 I have been a fan of Mhairi's for quite some time now， and every book she releases is refreshing and totally different from the last。 Last Night is full of heartache and drama， with an added dose of laugh out loud moments intertwined throughout。 I found myself really rooting for Eve from the very beginning。。。。 that poor woman has certainly had more than her fair share of difficulties thrown her way hasn't she？！。 The courage she shows whilst battling through her own grief for Suzie - her best friend， is so incredibly moving and shows that Eve is in fact a strong， capable woman who can do whatever she sets her mind to。 I adored the tentative relationship that formed between Eve and Fin， despite it being rather hostile to begin with， as the pair of them start lowering their walls and allowing the other to see who they really are， they discover that they have much more in common than they initially thought。 I could talk about this book all day long， but I really don't want to give too much away！。 I will finish off by saying that this story has well and truly secured a place in my heart， and I can't wait to read future releases by Mhairi McFarlane。 。。。more

I am in deja vu！ I'm reading this book in e-publishing/iBook form， while I hit 20% part of this book （the accident part） my mind was telling me: "did I have ever read this book in a past time？" Then I'm going to 30-40% what in my mind is just proven。 This story already in my head。 My guess is right。 OMG。So， am I really having deja vu or what？ Why this story looks familiar for me？ Now I'm still reading （42%）。 I am in deja vu！ I'm reading this book in e-publishing/iBook form， while I hit 20% part of this book （the accident part） my mind was telling me: "did I have ever read this book in a past time？" Then I'm going to 30-40% what in my mind is just proven。 This story already in my head。 My guess is right。 OMG。So， am I really having deja vu or what？ Why this story looks familiar for me？ Now I'm still reading （42%）。 。。。more

After reading and enjoying one of McFarlane's other books， I was excited to give this one a try！ I enjoyed the main character and think that she did some real growing up over the course of the story， which is always interesting to read about。 My one main confusion is with the pacing of the story。 It felt as if the plot didn't really start until about 20% in and even then not much happened until the last 15%。 The relationship also seemed to go from 0 to 100 rather quickly with not much to go off After reading and enjoying one of McFarlane's other books， I was excited to give this one a try！ I enjoyed the main character and think that she did some real growing up over the course of the story， which is always interesting to read about。 My one main confusion is with the pacing of the story。 It felt as if the plot didn't really start until about 20% in and even then not much happened until the last 15%。 The relationship also seemed to go from 0 to 100 rather quickly with not much to go off of。 Overall， I would recommend this book as an unique concept， not quite so romantic romance story。 。。。more

Many many thoughts。 Firstly， this book is incredibly well written。 I loved the wit， I loved the characters， I loved the complexities and dynamics of each relationship。 I loved Eve’s journey and character arc。 It was so satisfying to see her understand more about herself and her friendships， and come to terms with certain facts。 The pacing felt a bit off- but it’s just a personal preference of mine。 The second half felt very fast paced compared to the first half。 One thing that is of no fault to Many many thoughts。 Firstly， this book is incredibly well written。 I loved the wit， I loved the characters， I loved the complexities and dynamics of each relationship。 I loved Eve’s journey and character arc。 It was so satisfying to see her understand more about herself and her friendships， and come to terms with certain facts。 The pacing felt a bit off- but it’s just a personal preference of mine。 The second half felt very fast paced compared to the first half。 One thing that is of no fault to the author is that I just didn’t understand a lot of the British slang and references。 Just One Night was gut wrenching， shocking， and hopeful。 It displays the complex relationships between friends realistically and devastatingly。 I look forward to reading more of the authors work。 。。。more

As I'm typing this， I still feel so raw and messed up just thinking about how utterly devastating and beautiful this book is。I have read Mhairi McFarlane's past two books before this and honestly can say that Just Last Night has got to be her most emotional yet。 It consumed me， made me think of the what-if's， reflect on my relationships， and grow alongside Eve's character who I found to be very relatable and loyal and endearing and real。 To learn about her friendships with Susie， Justin， and Ed As I'm typing this， I still feel so raw and messed up just thinking about how utterly devastating and beautiful this book is。I have read Mhairi McFarlane's past two books before this and honestly can say that Just Last Night has got to be her most emotional yet。 It consumed me， made me think of the what-if's， reflect on my relationships， and grow alongside Eve's character who I found to be very relatable and loyal and endearing and real。 To learn about her friendships with Susie， Justin， and Ed and see them interact as a close group and stay tight for more than a decade was so enlightening。 The history was there， the longing to be with each other forever， the separation anxiety， and eventually， the heartbreak。 I loved how McFarlane handled sensitive topics like loss and betrayal and abuse and self-blame。 The romance took a back seat on this one。 It was obvious from the synopsis and the beginning chapter of the book that Eve lost someone she held dear。 And everything from that point on will never be the same。 I felt that。 So many things about this hit home and I appreciated that as the reader， it felt like I was grieving too。 That I'm also looking for that person everywhere， reminiscing the past， and wishing things could've gone differently。 Other things to look forward to:-A feline character and a pet dog named after two gentlemen-Justin's taboo jokes that only he can get away with-A road trip to Edinburgh -Secrets that could potentially ruin everything I cannot NOT give this 5 stars。 I just can't。Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the earc！ 。。。more

Compulsively readable and full of charm and wit， McFarlane's books are often emotionally complex but this is perhaps the most difficult to read。A study of friendship， survival and coping， there's some romance here but it's a lot of tell and little show。 Enjoyable but not something I'll re-read in a hurry。 Compulsively readable and full of charm and wit， McFarlane's books are often emotionally complex but this is perhaps the most difficult to read。A study of friendship， survival and coping， there's some romance here but it's a lot of tell and little show。 Enjoyable but not something I'll re-read in a hurry。 。。。more

Not what you are expecting and the best work by the author yet！ I nearly read it in one sitting but life of course intervened。。。It’s about a girl whose life irrevocably changes one night and the journey she goes on as a result， with a great love story in the second half of the plot。 Highly recommend！TW: child abuse， death of a loved one， manipulative relationships

Not my favourite from Mhairi McFarlane but still a good read。 Discussing friendship， loss and love and how there are two sides to every story。Not as romantic a read as previous mcfarlane novels but the romance there is is still butterfly enducing none the less。
