The Last Murder at the End of the World by Stuart Turton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I loved every moment I spent with this book. The premise was already interesting: there is a black fog that kills most of humanity. The 110some people are left on an island and one is murdered. Our main character is trying to solve the mystery of what happened before the rest of them die from the incoming fog.
From the beginning this story was a bit dystopian. It smelled like “The Giver” where what you’re reading has something off about it and you’re waiting to see what unravels. But the story that comes together keeps surprising the reader more and more every minute. All the way to the very end, I totally didn’t see any of the onion layers as they peeled.
I loved all of it. I loved the characters. I loved the writing. I loved the ending. I loved this story.
