Karen Sanders works at the Coffee Cove. For the most part she enjoys her job, the
people are friendly, the pay is adequate, and she gets to people watch all day. Often as Karen watches people she tries to figure out their
story. Actually she’s pretty good at this game. That is until she met Travis Miller. Travis is a regular at the Coffee Cove. Everyday, around ten o’clock he comes into the café, sits at the second table from the counter, takes out his laptop computer, and starts to type. The introvert never says a word to anyone. In fact, Travis simply gives the café server a twenty dollar bill with a note stating his order for as many coffees as the money will buy, spread throughout the day. Karen wants to unlock the mystery of this strange behaviour but Travis rebuffs all her efforts. The Last Page is a refreshing story of healing and love. This story is unique as the female
character is more assertive and extroverted while the male character is more introverted and troubled. This realistic yet rarely written about twist of traditional gender
specific character
traits makes for interesting reading. Likewise, this
book does an exemplary job of creating fully developed characters, likely because of these specific, well thought out
personality traits. Furthermore, even as these characters evolve with the story, each character stays true to his or her foundation personality. This creates a seamless storyline with depth and a credible feel.
