The Party by Natasha Preston opens with Bessie and her boarding school friends preparing to sneak out for Spring Break to throw a huge party in a rundown castle. Things start to go awry when a huge storm hits and keeps them secluded in the remote castle and the friends begin to be killed. Who is doing this and why? A huge thank you goes out to NetGalley for providing me with an Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of The Party  for free in exchange for my honest review. I was excited to be approved for this book because I enjoyed The Island , at least until the ending, and thought The Dare  was just okay, and I wanted to be able to compare her latest novel to the ones I had already read. Preston did a fantastic job of having a lot of diverse characters. Despite there being quite a few characters, it wasn't too hard keeping them straight.

Book Review: No One Needs To Know by Lindsay Cameron

book review no one needs to know lindsay cameron

No One Needs To Know by Lindsay Cameron is a fictional thriller about families on the Upper East Side of New York City and the ends they'll go to for their children's education.  They also all are members of a social platform called UrbanMyth where they all post their secrets anonymously and ask for advice.  When UrbanMyth is hacked and their identities are revealed, one of them goes missing.  Who is involved?

Thank you, NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine, for the Advanced Readers Copy of No One Needs To Know by Lindsay Cameron.  I received this novel for free in exchange for my honest review.  I was excited to learn I was approved to read this story.

A slow burn, Lindsay Cameron weaved an intriguing tale that had me on the edge of my seat.  There were a couple of mysteries going on in the story.  I had no idea where the author was going with the one mystery, and I was shocked at the revelation at it.  As far as the other mystery goes, I figured what likely happened to the character but had no idea who was involved with it.

Told from three different characters, none of them were particularly likable.  I kept expecting them to redeem themselves, and I guess they did somewhat in the end.  However, I still didn't really care for any of them.

Well written, intriguing, and absolutely entertaining, I thoroughly enjoyed No One Needs To Know by Lindsay Cameron.  Five out of five stars.
