The Last Conversation by Paul TremblayMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
The Last Conversation by Paul Tremblay is a short story in the Amazon Original Stories Forward collection. It falls somewhere on the sci-fi, dystopian fiction, and horror spectrum. It is Paul Tremblay after all. With such a short story it is hard to give too many details without possibly spoiling it. So, I will say if you aren't up for reading about pandemics right now, you may want to wait to read this. It doesn't play a big part, but it is the backdrop.
I liked the way this was written. Skipping chapters to show the passage of time. The main character is never defined because it is "you" which adds another dimension to the story. It is really well-written and developed. As the pages go by, you feel the tension building up. You know the story is going to end soon, and then it does, and maybe you let out a little scream.
