Death at the Party | Amy Stuart
7 posts | 8 read | 2 to read
In this tense, spellbinding thriller set over the course of a single day, a woman prepares for a party that goes dreadfully wrong--for fans of Ashley Audrain and Lisa Jewell. Nadine Walsh's summer garden party is in full swing. The neighbors all have cocktails, the catered food is exquisite--everything's going according to plan. But Nadine--devoted wife, loving mother, and doting daughter--finds herself standing over a dead body in her basement while her guests clink glasses upstairs. What happened? How did it come to this? Rewind to that morning, when Nadine is in her kitchen, making last-minute preparations before she welcomes more than a hundred guests to her home to celebrate her mother's birthday. But her husband is of little help to her, her two grown children are consumed with their own concerns, and her mother--only her mother knows that today isn't just a birthday party. It marks another anniversary as well. Still, Nadine will focus just on tonight. Everyone deserves a celebration after the year they've had. A chance for fun. A chance to forget. But it's hard to forget when Nadine's head is swirling with secrets, haunting memories, and concerns about what might happen when her guests unite.

Your typical thriller in my opinion. Nothing ground breaking but still a good read.

Ad the title says, there is a death at the party!

I definitely would never call this book a thriller, more like an afternoon read that was written well

Good. A compelling thriller that makes you feel like you are with the characters rather than just reading about them. The story just flows and I couldn't put this down. Thank you #Penguin for inviting me to read this via #Netgalley.

I really liked this! I was pulled in right away and wanted to keep readin. It was hard to know if Nadine herself was reliable. She had had an accident, and though primarily it was her hip that was injured, she had head injuries, too, that she was still recovering from. There was one twist that I feel like I should have seen coming, but I didn‘t. It‘s always more fun NOT to figure it out first, anyway!
