Rachael’s Review
I received a complimentary copy of this book from William Morrow through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
From the author of The Guest List comes another locked-room mystery where not everyone will make it out alive. At the opening weekend of The Manor, a luxury resort in an ancient forest, the guests each have their own agenda. On the guest list: the founder, her lover, the mystery guest, the kitchen help, and the detective. All have their own secrets and by the end of the weekend, a fire will break out and several people will be dead.
The Midnight Feast was simply a hot mess; a failed attempt to replicate the magical locked room vibe of her hit The Guest List. The problem with The Midnight Feast is that you hate almost every character. Worse, the characters are all supposedly tied together from their teenage years but somehow none of them recognize each other. Add in tons of clunky timeline shifts and you have the recipe for a complete waste of your time. I’m seriously annoyed with myself that I didn’t DNF this one.
