"Reese's book club"--Dust jacket.
On an island off the coast of Ireland, guests gather to celebrate two people joining their lives together as one. The groom: handsome and charming, a rising television star. The bride: smart and ambitious, a magazine publisher. It's a wedding for a magazine, or for a celebrity: the designer dress, the remote location, the luxe party favors, the boutique whiskey. The cell phone service may be spotty and the waves may be rough, but every detail has been expertly planned and will be expertly executed. But perfection is for plans, and people are all too human. As the champagne is popped and the festivities begin, resentments and petty jealousies begin to mingle with the reminiscences and well wishes. The groomsmen begin the drinking game from their school days. The bridesmaid not-so-accidentally ruins her dress. The bride's oldest (male) friend gives an uncomfortably caring toast. And then someone turns up dead. Who didn't wish the happy couple well? And perhaps more important, why?

Nice atmosphere, good start submitted by mbleed on July 21, 2020, 12:10pm then just abruptly ended, big lack of payoff or sensible wrap up. Just sort of stopped. Disappointed
Don't bother submitted by sara on July 16, 2021, 12:51pm I expected a ghost story set in Ireland, instead it was just disturbing.
The Guest List submitted by Marcie Austerberry on July 23, 2021, 4:38pm Very dark. Interesting to hear about a remote Irish island, and a British wedding. Satisfying ending, but could have tied up a few loose ends.
Fast-paced story with twists and turns submitted by KatieD on August 5, 2021, 6:25pm I enjoyed it but thought that the connection among all the characters was a little unrealistic.
Not worth it submitted by mtebo on June 29, 2022, 2:06am I absolutely could not stand any of the characters. Not worth the read.
Quick read. submitted by JoCeAn on July 30, 2022, 4:21pm I enjoyed this book. Had me guessing till the end. I like how the chapters were made up of different points of view from each of the main characters.
my mom read this submitted by yazied on August 14, 2022, 5:32pm yeah my mom readed this
Who Dun It? submitted by hiker15 on July 7, 2023, 9:08pm A bride books her wedding on a remote island where guests must travel by boat to get there. At the wedding a man is killed. Who dun it? There are several people at the wedding who have a motive. The ending was unexpected and it answered the reader's questions and made sense. I recommend this book as a good read.
Everything is Connected submitted by vtabor on July 16, 2023, 1:21pm I read the audiobook and really enjoyed the British and Irish accents. Overall a compelling thriller that will keep you guessing. I thought the ending was rather sudden or wrapped up too quickly, but definitely worth a read if you're interested in wedding-related thrillers.
Audiobook Win submitted by vclinton on July 31, 2023, 9:56pm Totally recommend this on audiobook - the accents are wonderful and it holds your attention. Great atmospheric book.
