The Last Romantics by Tara Conklin
3.0

2.5 stars. The biggest problem I have with this book is that Fiona and Joe (arguably the two characters we are supposed to have the most connection to) are flat and dull. The author breathes brief life into Renee and Caroline and leaves nothing for the other Skinner siblings. I find none of the messages about love resonate with me nor the family drama that seems hyper realistic. It dragged on for 350 pages and the last hundred pages felt like two hundred.
