Book of The Month discussion

The New York Times bestselling Queen of Twists returns…with a family reunion that leads to murder.

After years of avoiding each other, Daisy Darker’s entire family is assembling for Nana’s 80th birthday party in Nana’s crumbling gothic house on a tiny tidal island. Finally back together one last time, when the tide comes in, they will be cut off from the rest of the world for eight hours.

The family arrives, each of them harboring secrets. Then at the stroke of midnight, as a storm rages, Nana is found dead. And an hour later, the next family member follows…

Trapped on an island where someone is killing them one by one, the Darkers must reckon with their present mystery as well as their past secrets, before the tide comes in and all is revealed.

With a wicked wink to Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None, Daisy Darker’s unforgettable twists will leave readers reeling.

Loved this one so much and truly didn't see the twist coming

oooh I'm so excited to read this one!! I'm trying to work through my pile to get to it!!

I order this, but may wait to read in October and catch up on some of my others!!

ooh this one is so good! Very addictive, very "and then there were none" vibe

12 chapters (view spoiler)[ hmmm. . .I'm leaning on Connor knowing more than anyone right now

although I don't trust Daisy. She isn't telling us she isn't involved but she's also not giving us all her movements either.
I love the stacked up pumpkins and turnips and squashes (like the pieces in And Then There Were None

and the poem!! lol every time someone steps out of the room, I go back and read the poem

I think her dad should be next to die, dancing himself off to death. . .his comment at dinner was a hit to the head but someone else's was falling off the cliff

I wonder which one he'll be (hide spoiler)]

oh and I can't even imagine 80 clocks chiming at midnight! lol how would you ever sleep through that?!?

22 chapters

(view spoiler)[ wow, so she is still the one slinking around
but a lot of the time, Conor is out too
but could it be someone we thought was dead? Could it be Trixie and she was just hoping someone could save her (she was left alone for a while presumed sleeping)

but I still am weary of our narrator. She even said "you can get away with murder when you're dying"

but man, lol, I'm just not sure of anything! (hide spoiler)]

this one is so fun so far!

and I'm done!

this one was wonderful

(view spoiler)[ I was beginning to suspect Daisy might be a ghost when she was in the bedroom with Connor and he didn't even respond to her (NOW her typing boo must have really freaked him out!) I didn't suspect the grandma but I did wonder about Trixie

all in all, this is an excellent re-telling! I loved the unique twists! (hide spoiler)]
