From the New York Times bestselling author of Red, White & Royal Blue comes a new romantic comedy that will stop readers in their tracks...


For cynical twenty-three-year-old August, moving to New York City is supposed to prove her right: that things like magic and cinematic love stories don’t exist, and the only smart way to go through life is alone. She can’t imagine how waiting tables at a 24-hour pancake diner and moving in with too many weird roommates could possibly change that. And there’s certainly no chance of her subway commute being anything more than a daily trudge through boredom and electrical failures.

But then, there’s this gorgeous girl on the train.

Jane. Dazzling, charming, mysterious, impossible Jane. Jane with her rough edges and swoopy hair and soft smile, showing up in a leather jacket to save August’s day when she needed it most. August’s subway crush becomes the best part of her day, but pretty soon, she discovers there’s one big problem: Jane doesn’t just look like an old school punk rocker. She’s literally displaced in time from the 1970s, and August is going to have to use everything she tried to leave in her own past to help her. Maybe it’s time to start believing in some things, after all.

Casey McQuiston’s One Last Stop is a magical, sexy, big-hearted romance where the impossible becomes possible as August does everything in her power to save the girl lost in time.

  • Lost in my late 20s

    Exactly what I needed. Definitely YA vibes, but also not at all. Just like being in your mid 20s— you’re an adult, but in the big picture of life, you’re so very young. So, great YA content and feelings explored, but also that little bit of spice and topics/feelings that will (as far as I’ve experienced at this point of life) will last a lifetime. Thoughts for those who came out at a young age, and those of us who still haven’t come out. Grief, found family, love of all kinds, desire, fears, shoutouts to lgbtq history, home, what it’s actually like to live in NYC coming from a newbie, finding the confidence to do the things that matter to you, accepting the parts of you that you’ve always denied, and so much more.
  • Took me a while to get started but worth it

    I bounced off the first couple of chapters two or three times before I finally got far enough to get hooked. But I liked her other books and one of the characters in another of my favorite books loved this one, so I tried again. Definitely worth it and by the end, I was reading in small doses to postpone getting to the end. The rare novel of this genre where I really didn’t know how it was going to resolve. I would actually be interested in reading a version that went the other way. Highly recommended!
  • amazing book!!

    I did really love the characters and the story but I would’ve love to see a little bit more intimacy.

    An enjoyable read with cool side characters but it fell a bit flat.... I don't regret reading it but there are lots of better books.

    This is one of, if not the, greatest books I’ve ever read. It was a rollercoaster of emotions and I couldn’t put it down once I started it.
