This was a DNF. I just could not for the life of me get into it. I’ve read good reviews and had it recommended by a friend with similar reading taste to me, but it just was not clicking for me. Maybe I need to try it in a different format (audio?).

This was a slow burn in the beginning. It took me a while to get into it - I think because it read as more of a soapy drama than a thriller/mystery. About halfway through I definitely found myself wanting to see what happened and the story picked up from there.

I think there were too many characters along the way so I didn’t feel extremely invested in any of them. The end has a nice twist too.

Thanks to NetGalley and the author for the opportunity to provide an honest review.

Ellery Lloyd's People Like Her is a fav of mine. The Club is a bit reminiscent of The Guest List and And Then There Were None. It's a bit slow and the theme's a bit saturated.- keeping this one from also being a fav.

Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for sharing this one with me. All thoughts are my own.

The Club was much soapier than I expected. Set on a remote island at a party for the elite, The Club takes us on a journey of betrayal, blackmail, and intrigue. I wasn't sure who to trust or where the story was even going. At first, I wasn't sold, but a twist about halfway through changed it all for me and I needed to know how it was going to end.

this was a slow start for me, as it felt like a lot of names were thrown at the reader rather quickly without fully explaining who everyone was. additionally, the groundwork for setting up the exclusivity of The Club was a bit tedious. once past these hurdles, the pace picks up quickly & i found it difficult to put down. yes, there are some cliched characterizations but the ending was still a surprise.

This book grabbed me right in. I really enjoyed the plot development and characters. Highly recommend this book.

Reminiscent of a Jackie Collins mega drama of the 1980's, The Club has an incredible cast of characters with an absolutely gorgeous backdrop of an amazing luxury resort. So many twists and characters to keep straight - I had no idea about the ending!

This is a new to me author and I have to say I am looking forward to reading more by this author! I loved this book

I really enjoyed this story. Definitely a great read with mystery and suspense. A very good story with an unexcepted ending.

This was very well written and I loved it. There was the right amount of suspenseand thrill! I recommend highly!!!

The Club was an entertaining read, though it took me a while to get into it and a long time to read. It was a little hard to keep all the characters straight, especially in the first half of the book. I didn’t see any of the main plot points coming so it did keep me on my toes!

This was not my favorite - I found myself not caring about most of the characters, and then it's hard to care about what happens to them.

If I could give half stars, I'd give it a 2 1/2. I wanted to love this book, after People Like Her (which was one of the best books I've read this year), but....this just didn't do it for me. No specific reason, I just wasn't sucked in right away. It did get better halfway through, when the twists really started being revealed. I like the way these authors drop their twists at the end of chapters too. It makes me want to keep reading. I remember the same style from their previous book.

Did not end up finishing this one, but just wasn’t in the right mood. May try to pick up again at a later time.

The Club by Ellery Lloyd was at great book club book. I enjoyed the story line and characters. I enjoyed reading this book.

Thank you to Netgalley, Harper, and Ellery Lloyd for an E-arc of The Club in exchange for an honest review. I enjoyed this interesting take on an exclusive Club where celebrities could go to escape their lives. The author did a great job of painting a beautiful picture of the island to me and it really added to my reading experience. Although this one was more of a slow burn, I did really enjoy it. The ending was exactly what I wanted as well. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Man, I tried. "The Club" has all my favorite elements in a book - a mysterious death, everyone trapped on an island, fancy hotel setting - but I just couldn't get into it. The characters all fell flat and I had a hard time telling them apart with each new chapter. Sadly a DNF.

The plot was intriguing, it was well-written, but it was very slow moving with a lot of storylines to follow.

Where everyone will kill to join.



I dnf this book before because I'm a moodreader. But then, I finally decided to finish this. Honestly though, I should have stuck with dnf-ing. This dragged and I was just bored. There was just to many povs that I couldn't keep them straight I didn't care for the characters, the plot, who dies, any of it. 



Thank you NetGalley and publishers of Harper for this Ebook for an honest review.

This thrilling novel is engaging, interesting and exciting. Reminiscent of another Reese’s Book Club pick, The Guest List, it’s a modern day whodunnit. The characters are realistic, relatable and well defined. A definite must read page turner!
