I received this book for free from Publisher in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

Last Chance Live! is the most popular reality show in America—and eighteen-year-old death row inmate Eternity Price’s last chance to live. Getting cast on the show could win her clemency preventing her execution… if she can convince the viewing audience she deserves a second chance. The catch? If America doesn’t vote for her, she loses the chance to appeal her sentence, and she’ll be executed within a week of being eliminated from the show. And since Eternity’s been unpopular her whole life, she’s terrified America won’t pick her. But any chance of getting out of prison and back to her little brother Sincere, no matter how slim, is better than rotting away in her cell.

Eternity never expected to find her first real friends in a reality TV house full of people battling for survival after being convicted of capital crimes, but that’s exactly what happens. So when she gets the opportunity to sabotage them and secure her own victory, she has a choice to make: protect the friendships and acceptance she’s always longed for at the cost of her own life, or sacrifice her newfound community. Eternity must ultimately decide what forgiveness, family, and freedom mean to her, and how far she’ll go to win a game where the stakes are literally life or death.

Short and Sweet Review

Last Chance Live! is a popular reality television show where prisoners on death row can win their freedom by winning the show. Eternity is on death row and she knows this show could be her last chance at living a life outside of the prison walls. Eternity needs America to vote for her or she’ll get eliminated and if she gets eliminated she’ll be executed within a week.

This book sounds amazing and interesting but I couldn’t wait to be finished with it, it’s really something I want to forget about. Eternity is our main character and I feel like she’s not all there sometimes like she can be strategic and other times she makes very stupid decisions. Eternity decides to take her chances and apply for the show because she rather do the show than wait for the appeals process, she also wants to see her brother again. Last Chance Live! has a group of prisoners in a house, they compete in challenges and America gets to vote on who stays or goes. We don’t learn about the crimes these people committed until they’re in the bottom two. Surprisingly we have to wait to find out what Eternity did, and honestly I found her to be such an insufferable character I did not care what would happen to her or what she did. The synopsis says something about Eternity making friends and caring for those in. the house but they were just a means to an end for her, only one person can win. Eternity has this attitude that things are owed to her, the votes, her freedom, she also expects loyalty and for people to fall in line and do what she says. This book was longer than it needed to be and because of that I had to deal with more of Eternity and her holier than thou attitude.

Overall, if you’ve made it this far into my review than you can tell that I did not like this book at all and I won’t be recommending it. The premise sounds great it’s just unfortunate we don’t have a character worthy of winning… I wouldn’t vote for Eternity.
