booklistqueen 's review for:
The Club
by Ellery Lloyd
dark
mysterious
medium-paced
The Home Group is a selective group of celebrity clubs where the rich and famous can party in private and then sleep it off in one of the luxury suites. As a group of celebrities descends for the opening of the pinnacle of The Home Group's resorts on a private island, the company employees are pushed to the breaking point and bad behavior and deadly secrets lead to an explosive weekend.
I thought Reese's March book club pick was overrated, which is disappointing because I loved Ellery Lloyd's debut novel, People Like Her. The first half of the novel drags as it tries too hard to impress you with the exclusivity of its resorts. Even when the action picks up in the second half, the lack of character development makes for a forgettable read.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Harper through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
