Enjoyed the book. The structure of the book made the first 100 pages difficult to follow but was able to see the significance of the structure the further I read. My book club members who listened to it found it very difficult to follow. Loved the plot twists and turns; especially enjoyed the ending!

Where to even begin?! This book has everything I like: historical fiction, mystery, full of twists and turns, a diverse cast, long chapters, found family trope, and the most satisfying ending. I loved every bit of it!

Great character development, even though there are many ladies and their fellows to keep up with you will feel like they are old friends! Plus the murder keeps you guessing until the end!
This fiction set in 1950s Washington DC and told from the perspective of the historical Briarwood House is a Whodunit to Whom mystery. 17 people faced interrogation during the investigation of 2 murders in the boarding house. I had a tough time keeping them all straight. I adored reading about their Thursday Supper Clubs with recipes included. This is not a typical Kate Quinn historical fiction , but she really captured the importance of friendships in this book .
