The Last One At The Wedding by Jason Rekulak
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
A Suspenseful Family Drama with a Twist
Jason Rekulak's The Last One at the Wedding is a gripping thriller that delves into the complexities of family relationships and the dark secrets that can lurk beneath a seemingly perfect facade. Frank a middle-aged father, is thrilled when his estranged daughter, Maggie, invites him to her upcoming wedding. However, as he arrives at the secluded estate, he begins to sense an unsettling atmosphere.
Rekulak skillfully builds tension throughout the novel, which kept me guessing about the true nature of the family's secrets. The characters are well-developed and relatable, making it easy to empathize with their struggles and fears. The author's writing style is both suspenseful and thought-provoking, forcing me to question the motives of everyone involved.
While the overall plot is engaging, I found the ending to be somewhat rushed and lacking in closure. I would have appreciated a more in-depth exploration of certain plot points and a more satisfying resolution for some of the characters.
Despite this minor flaw, The Last One at the Wedding is a captivating read that will keep you hooked until the very end. Rekulak's ability to create a suspenseful and thought-provoking narrative is undeniable. I would rate the book a 4 out of 5 stars, with a recommendation for fans of psychological thrillers and family dramas.
