My rating: 3 of 5 stars
The Guest List is like if The Great Gatsby's murders took place during one of Gatsby's parties. You don't love the characters, but you're intrigued by them the way you're intrigued by a car wreck. Like I've said before Foley is like Agatha Christie meets reality television - which means Foley's books are just as clever, but more salacious and dramatic.
I didn't love this one, but I was still hooked. The Hunting Party is better, but the way the characters' lives and motivations intersected all the way to the final pages was great.
Happy reading--
ps. I love how Foley takes innocuous phrases for her titles and makes them mean something completely different.
