Got halfway through before I decided to give up. The boring details and lack of real story (and too many characters perspectives) just would not end. Brutal

Fun “eat the rich” murder mystery set in the most exclusive of members clubs. Really enjoyed the plot of this one, enjoyed the non linear storyline and the range of characters. The ending was a bit meh but definitely a fun read once you got into it!

Slow to start but towards the end weaved together a good mystery and story.

It was a solid thriller but a bit hard to follow at times

A proper review is coming when I process my thoughts

The Club is a dumb-dumb thriller set on a remote island that boasts an ultra-exclusive getaway for the very rich and celebrities. This resort has an Epstein-island vibe. Unfortunately, the book is dull and includes way too many points of view, none of which I cared about.

The story starts when the reader learns that a murder has occurred on the island. Then, 80% of the book is devoted to mediocre celebrity gossip. It was slow and didn't pick up until the end. It just didn't grab my attention, which is unfortunate because I was excited to read The Club.
