The Last Party
Sadly this was a DNF for me. I made it to page 100 before calling it quits.
I liked the aspect of having multiple characters who could be guilty of a murder within the story, but as the story progress I found that there were just too many characters and I didn’t really care about them, or if they were guilty or not. Plus, the story itself did not flow smoothly between the different points of view, and made it feel choppy and disjointed.
This story also was an extremely slow pace and made it so flat.
Synopsis: At midnight, one of them is dead. By morning, all of them are suspects.
It's the party to end all parties….but not everyone is here to celebrate.
On New Year's Eve, Rhys Lloyd has a house full of guests. His vacation homes on Mirror Lake are a success, and he's generously invited the village to drink champagne with their wealthy new neighbors.
But by midnight, Rhys will be floating dead in the freezing waters of the lake.
On New Year's Day, Ffion Morgan has a village full of suspects. The tiny community is her home, so the suspects are her neighbors, friends and family―and Ffion has her own secrets to protect.
With a lie uncovered at every turn, soon the question isn't who wanted Rhys dead…but who finally killed him.
In a village with this many secrets, murder is just the beginning.

AOTD: We don’t need anything, so unless there’s special deals on gift cards for bookstores or coffee shops, I’m just going to stay home and cook. And, why can’t airlines and hotels have Black Friday sales!?! Now those I could go for.
Thank you, Sourcebook Landmark, for this gift, a copy in exchange for my honest review.
