        			&#x2018;I practically murdered this book in an evening I loved it so much. The Party is a terrifying, hilarious, brilliantly written original with a wit to die for&#x2019; Phoebe Waller-Bridge&#x2018;An exhilarating and gripping psychological thriller about obsession, betrayal, jealousy and class distinctions.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ This is a literay novel not a thriller.
        
*by D***R on 17 August 2018*

It is interesting to see how divided the reviews of this book are. I feel it is because people are coming into this with the wrong expectations. This is not a thriller, it is in my view a literary novel which has borrowed some of the structural elements of a thriller novel. But it does so in a very frustrating way for a thriller fan because it breaks the 'rules' of the genre. Every time that a scene leads up to something juicy, it is cut away to a different scene. Which means that we the reader have no chance of solving the puzzle, we are given no illusion of activity, we are forced to sit passively and watch the story unfold. Which is not what thriller readers want.Saying that, there is some lovely writing and some very interesting exploration of character. There are some great moments where all you can do is cringe at Martins sycophancy. Lucy was far and away the most engaging character and I would have loved about 100% more of her. But I think there was a failure to dig into Ben's emotions at having Martin chained to him for so many years. The ending was as flat as a pancake, very much a literary ending as opposed to a thriller one.So if your a fan of the thriller genre, avoid, this will just frustrate you. If you want an exploration of relationships, friendship and character you may enjoy it more.
  

### ⭐ Dreadful book. Cardboard characters I couldn't care less about ...
        
*by P***S on 30 July 2018*

Dreadful book.  Cardboard characters I couldn't care less about and muddled plot.  The writer is trying far too hard and as a result the prose is pretentious and self conscious.  Also the writer obviously hasn't checked a lot of the facts she mentions (and has clearly never stayed in a Premier Inn).
  

### ⭐ Horrible people...
        
*by M***M on 24 August 2018*

The tag line is One Night - A lifetime of secrets. But it is basically just a story to reinforce the fact that the rich walk all over the rest of us and don't give a toss. In this story, the main characters are either incredibly wealthy and do whatever they want or they are sycophantic hangers on who are too stupid to see that they are being used. Not one character is likeable - not even the children.
