I really loved all of the drama and secrets in this book! Some characters were fun to hate while others I really felt for. The ending was a bit predictable but the book was very fast paced and easy to get into! I also enjoyed the setting of the wedding and the creepy island. Secrets and murder at an island wedding where no one can easily leave was the perfect setting!
This is my first Lucy Foley book and I definitely want to read more by her!!

This book reminded me so much of Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None." It's set in Ireland, on an island, at a wedding of a celebrity (groom) and a magazine developer (bride). Friends and family gather for a night before the wedding, and a murder occurs on the night of the wedding. You don't find out who died until the end of the book, or who killed someone. This was a great twist to the book that I really liked. There were so many possibilities, since all you knew was that the waitress screamed when she found the dead body, and then passed out...so you don't find out until later who it was. This makes the victim and the murderer both mysteries. It turns out that the groom and the bride have enemies among most of the people there, so it really could be anyone. I loved this book, and can't wait to read others by this author.
I wished it was juicier the drama wasn’t enough for me I enjoyed the story it had some eye brow raising moments but nothing jaw dropping
This wasn't really my thing. It felt like a reverse murder mystery, which turns out I don't like, and I wasn't engaged in the characters. It did start to pick up and then the ending wasn't my favourite. The author is a very good writer though, so that bumped up the score.
