I just couldn’t get through it. I’m not sure exactly why, but I gave up.

I’ve loved every Lucy Foley book I’ve read until this one. It was extremely slow progression throughout the book and had a very lackluster ending. I’m used to Foley’s suspense and thrills and this book had none of that. I kind of get what the story was about, but at the same time I feel like I must not have understood something because I felt there was no point to the storyline.

Very different from the other books I've read by this author ( The guest list, The Paris Apartment) and some of the things I didn't like about those books worked a bit better here. Lovely descriptions of the various locations! It just couldn't quite grab me, the stories shifted too quickly.

2.5 - it was pretty slow, kind of boring. Usually I love Lucy Foley’s books but the writing style of this one bothered me
