DID NOT FINISH: 38%

Boring, no likable characters and at this point I don’t care which one of them in a murdered. I’m 38% ( 122 pages ) into the book and I have zero interest in finishing the book.

Oh my gosh! So good! The ending was so shocking and I wanted more. I need a novella, just to see what happened next!!!

The mood and tension of the book was palpable. It moved slowly for 75% of the book, so it took a while to get into it, but the author stuck the landing!

This was very very good. Not saying who was murdered, who did it or why/how added to the mystery of the book. I really really liked this. Seeing how bit by bit everyone was broken in their own way was very sad. Makes me think how true this is in life.

This book had mixed reviews and so I really wasn’t expecting much and was pleasantly surprised. Would definitely read more by Lucy Foley.
