The Guest List by Lucy Foley
3.0

3.5 stars? This book is filled with the most unattractive toxic masculinity. While it was great to see the comeuppance that I was waiting for the entire book, the ending did feel rushed and incomplete. I can't put my finger on what is missing. I feel like Will got of easy, and never really had to face the consequences of his actions, which according to him is the only way to know you did something wrong. His victims will all remain silent, and his legacy will be unmarred. If anything his death will glorify his life. Okay the more I think about this, the more I loathe the ending.
