VERY slowly. It didn't really pick up until about halfway through, and only for a short time. The ending was anticlimactic.

Twisty thriller with a modern premise, plenty of red herrings abound.

When a group of people go to a vacation house for the weekend, they never dream that it could unravel their lives. 

This book kept me interested in the plot, but wasn’t anything special. I found it semi-predictable and a little heavy on the concept of “family”. The ending also dragged on a little long. 

I liked Henry’s story arc the best, which was only a small portion of the whole thing.

This was an incredibly quick read for me. The plot was very engaging. It was fast paced and kept you interested. Overall good. 

However, there were points where it kind of lost its grip on me. Purely because the author would forget what was happening it felt like. A character suddenly was not holding something they had been, or was wearing something totally different. And the over use of some words threw me. For example, svelte and akimbo (which I saw so frequently that I needed to look up their meanings).

This was pretty solid. It moved quickly, but I didn't get super connected to it. Maybe too many POVs?
