The last sentence is just one word. So I think that covers this nicely! Glad to have checked this one off my list naturally!

"Welcome to the year 2045."



4.5 stars. 6 words
“No one has claimed them yet.”

I was going to use this for I think if was blue, but since it had a six word final sentence (and that has been more difficult then I thought it would be) I chose to put it here.

Last sentence is 5 words.

For prompt 36, choose a book in which the final sentence is less than six words long. It doesn’t matter whether it has one word or five words, as long as it’s less than six, it counts!
It’s also up to you what you consider the final sentence to be. You may decide to count additional content (such as an author’s note or acknowledgements.) It’s also up to individual readers whether or not they would include a phrase like “The End” as the final sentence or not.
Keep in mind that we are an international group of readers who tackle prompts in multiple languages and translations. Some books may fit this prompt in some translations but not others. (For example: The Spanish translation of a certain book has a final sentence that is five words long, while the French translation of that exact same book might have seven words.) As long as at least one edition of the book fits the prompt, you can read that book in any edition, translation, or format.
