I loveee Lucy Foley’s writing style of switching between the different characters and perspectives. It is gripping and page turning and I like the short chapters. I thought the twists and turns and depth of the plot were great and the latter half of the book was extremely clever. I gave Guest List 5 stars, which utterly blew me away but I didn’t like this book as much because I found it very slow paced for the first three hundred pages or so, and I found the protagonist quite irritating. I felt there was a lot of repetition in what was happening and not much variety, but then the ending did deliver. Overall, a great author and thrilling read
