A YA dystopian thriller debut from Mel De Pablos

Release Date: November 11, 2025

Berlin, 2036. Six years after the Blast wiped out every girl and woman, the world belongs to men. But not all of them know the truth. Elias is a quiet boy, cautious and withdrawn. That’s what everyone believes. In reality, Elias is Eve—the last surviving girl on earth.

To stay alive, she must play her part perfectly: hide her identity and obey the rules of the oppressive regime. But when a cryptic message resurfaces and a stranger named Leo appears, Eve is forced onto a dangerous journey through a shattered world. Tracked by drones, pursued by soldiers, and burdened by a secret no one can ever discover, she may be humanity’s last hope.

The Last Girl on Earth: The 23rd Pair is the first book in a heart-pounding YA dystopian trilogy about survival, identity, and the dangerous cost of hope.
