Didn’t see anything special to it, didn’t finish

@HB glamma I agree 100 percent. I read one of hers and thought it was marginal, read reviews and started another and didn't get very far into it. It was like reading the same book again.

Thank you for your review. I'm on the waiting list. By the time they get down to me, the book will be in paperback!

Do you have the online library apps? I just got on my libraries list and it's only 13 days. I love the free apps. I use them exclusively.

@songbird I haven't read it and will add it to my Amazon wish list. I love books that are hard to put down (except I don't get anything else done!).

One such book that I read like that recently was "American Dirt" by Jeanine Cummins. I had to keep reading to see what happens next!

My personal favorite current writer is Samantha Downing "My Lovely Wife" "He Started it" Her new books coming out this summer. I already pre ordered it on Amazon.

This book just blew me away. When I started, I was getting interrupted. And I thought, what is the big hub bub over this book? It seemed kind of slow, them I picked it up again after the first chapter.....and then bam!!!! So hard to put down. Had the fight the urge to read ahead. Now I understand the rave renews. Almost as good as the plot, is the way the way the book was constructed. Short, sharp chapters. The plot was tight and so were the chapters. It helped with the overall chill of the book.

The plot of the book centers around a very opulent wedding.....and the guests invited.

Anyone read this yet? It was voted the best mystery at Goodread. I havn't read
any of her previous books. That will be easily remedied.

@songbird

Your description intrigued me....I was looking for another author to get involved with. WOW...thank you for taking the time to post !!!

The book was everything you said...I read it in record time. Now looking forward to my second book.

Folks, for those who love mysteries, the author ties up all loose ends into a surprise package you never saw coming. Enough said !

I just started reading this book and it has seemed a little slow to me but now I am motivated to stick with it since everyone liked it so much!

@Lali1,

I actually got the book this week from the library. There are over 700 holds, I thought I was number 801!

I'm halfway thru it and I like the short chapters. I will finish the book but I am not as impressed with it as I thought I would be.

But I need to find out who died and who did it.

I really enjoyed the book. I'm now reading reading The Hunting Party and it's the same I have a hard time putting it down. I only read at night just too scatttered and busy to read during the daytime. I have a hard time putting it away because I want to know what's going to happen. I got this as an instant download on cloud library no wait.
