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.

I am always hooked by a celebrity thriller like this about the many indiscretions of the rich and famous. I loved the many POVs, the morally gray characters, and the many routes to vengeance. This was a fun, quick read that had me tuned in from the start.

Loved the storyline of the rich and famous seeking exclusive VIP status to an opening party of Home’s getaway on Butchers Island. Home is an exclusive multi property private getaway for only the most fabulous celebs in the business.

Cell phones and cameras aren’t allowed at Home and it’s a place where the celebs can be themselves without any chance of anyone ever seeing or hearing about it.
This book shows the ultimate twisted portrait of how wealth and power can lead to a very dark and evil side in people.

Highly recommend this scandalous sensational read.
