Dava Shastri's Last Day
by Kirthana Ramisetti
What would you do if you knew you were going to die soon?
In Dava Shastri’s Last Day, billionaire philanthropist Dava has recently found out she is going to die from a brain tumor, so she takes control of the situation. She calls her children to spend the holidays at her private island, and leaks the news of her death early - so she can read the obituaries and spend her last days with her family in peace. What she doesn’t expect is for her biggest secrets to come out.
I LOVED this book. What an interesting perspective on legacy, forgiveness and love. The complexities of her family and her death really got me thinking. I loved getting the perspectives of so many characters and different time periods. Dava herself was a very unique character. She has so many layers to her and it made for a very compelling read.
I was thankful to have both a physical copy and an audiobook because I did not want to put this down and flew through it in a day. Both formats were phenomenal, but I especially loved the song at the end of the audiobook.
Thank you to Grand Central Publishing and Hachette Audio for the gifted copies.
