A review by omgitswinnie
The Book Club by C.J. Cooper
1.0
Firstly, I would like to thank Little, Brown Book Group UK and the author, C. J. Cooper, for the advanced copy I received through Netgalley.
This book is about a woman who is on a mission to take revenge. She moves into a new neighbourhood because she knows someone who already lives there and wants to make them pay. She starts unravelling friendships and derailing her victim's life subtly through the creation of a book club. Each book chosen is purposeful to uncover secrets.
It is a very complex and busy plot with many different characters and chapters switching between their perspectives. For someone who loves this style and thrillers with slow building suspense, this book is for you. Unfortunately, I didn't find myself hooked and didn't long to pick it up to read. In fact, it was taking me so long to read that I actually ended up skipping most of it to get to the end.
Overall, although this book isn't for me, we all have our own opinions and I'm sure many other people will really enjoy the many twists and turns this book has to offer.
