Book Review: "Last One Out Shut Off The Lights" By Stephanie Soileau

"These stories feature characters struggling to find a foothold in a world that is forever washing out from under them, people who must reckon with their ambivalence about belonging to a place so continually in flux."

"An overwhelmed teenage mother leaves her infant son in a closet to buy herself a night out; a teacher with a terminally ill husband fantasizes about another man; a retiree surveys the devastation left by a hurricane and decides the fate of a lost cat; and a young woman out of options tries to drag her brother to Mexico for surgery, desperate to save his life and her own."

With this said, this was an interesting read by Stephanie Soileau with several short stories and a mixture of different dynamics at play.

Thank you to Stephanie, the pub, NetGalley, and Amazon Kindle for this ARC in exchange for this honest review.
