I did not finish this novel and too be honest didn't make it past the first couple of chapters. The premise was intriguing but I just didn't enjoy the writing style

Just ok for me. It's obvious from the beginning that these people "won" for a reason and that it is all connected somehow to the girl's death. Some good twists and suspense though around what the reason behind the trip was and who the culprits were. Little slow.

A really enjoyable book which I will certainly recommend to others.
Thanks for the opportunity to read & review it.

If you like a good thriller, you will love The Summer Party! This book is so tense and claustrophobic, it had my on the edge of my seat thr whole time!

It's so twisty, gripping, fast-paced, and dramatic! The characters are so well written, that I genuinely had no idea who to trust, who to be wary of and who to suspect. The remote location made for the perfect setting for this who-dunnit style story. I also really liked the inclusion of newspaper articles and the comments sections and the police interviews.

Honestly, I loved absolutely every second I spent reading this book!

This was such an exhilarating and thrilling read overall. The pace and suspension are so well done that they kept me hooked until the very end.

Thank you to the publishers for my early access in exchange of a honest review .

This is Kates second book set in the darker world of the thriller genre . This is perfect holiday reading !
Fast paced and action packed
Will have you second guessing right to rge very last page .

Secrets and revenge are on the menu of this party .
A great range of characters and plot points to keep the reader hooked and turning the pages .

When HR manager Mel is chosen to be one of the select few in their agency who win an overnight stay at a lavish hotel which is being relaunched through a PR campaign run by the agency, she is thrilled. Things like this don't happen to people like her, and it gives her chance to get closer to her office crush, Charlie.

Except that things don't work out quite as expected. While Mel has been closely guarding her involvement in the tragic death of a young colleague, Holly, several months ago, it turns out that Mel may not be only one in the office with secrets. And all is about to be revealed in the worst possible way at the much anticipated office party...

This story was entertaining enough and an easy read. But elements of it were so reminiscent of a classic slasher movie, that I found it a little hard to take seriously. I did guess the most unlikely part of the plot, but the author did a good job of dropping red herrings along the way. A fun read based on a familiar trope.

This is the one summer party you will not want to miss! A scorcher of a read, if you’re into thrillers that read literally in one sitting!
