Book Club – The Guest List

Shawshank, January 3, 2021

Welcome back to The Lockup Library Book Club! A book club for the new year! On that note, happy new year as well! Like the title says this weeks book club is The Guest List by Lucy Foley.

I’m about 70% of the way through it. I have a hard time putting it down, it just sucks you in. It’s a slow paced book, with shorter chapters to make it really feel fast paced. But at the heart of it, it’s a slow burner.

I’m really liking this book. I have no idea who the murderer is yet. Or even the fact that they haven’t found a body yet.

But like true murder mysteries, everyone is a suspect. Everyone has a past.

I can’t wait to see how this turns out. I’m really digging the writers style. I don’t mind the fact that in each chapter it’s either after the wedding, or before. That takes a little getting used to and a few seconds to figure out which time frame you’re in.

So far this book is awesome.
