Took me a while to get into this book but once I did I was gripped. The family drama is amazing, the way the story of their parents drive them to the point of the main plot about the party is clever once you realise what's happening! I loved it

I found the book quite slow, very descriptive for my taste and the ending very anticlimactic. I did not see the point of the story.

I enjoyed Daisy Jones and the Six so much better than this one - thought this was going to be a lot more exciting than it was but just left me a bit like meh - was that it?. It wasn't really a page turner for me and it didn't have me hooked.

I loved it other than at the end when she kept adding characters that weren't needed.
