Book Club Review

The Last Unicorn

by Peter S Beagle

fantasy Read: Jan 2025
A unicorn leaves her forest to discover whether she is truly the last of her kind.

Review

I found this one quite boring and long-winded.

For me, the story felt like it did not really go anywhere, and I struggled to stay engaged with it. I also did not enjoy the sense that things simply are what they are and cannot change — for example, the idea that a butterfly will always just be whimsical because that is its nature.

Overall, this was not for me, and I would not recommend it.
