I really liked this. It has lots of little twists in it that we're revealed just at the right times but still kept you guessing about other elements.

It was well written, I liked the story itself. It really reminded me of friendships at school and how easy they are to make and break and that nothing lasts forever. I really liked the extra little twists at the end.

Four best friends, lots of secrets, one slumber party and a killer, how could you not love this book already? This book had me hooked from the beginning, every time I tried to work out who the killer was, I ended up being wrong from all the twists and turns.

What do you do when your past comes back to haunt you? Liz, Sami, Mo and Amy are four best friends who share many secrets. Unfortunately their friendship disintegrates on prom night when one someone gets killed in 1999. It’s now the present day and Liz receives a note, she thought her past was behind her. Who is behind this note and can she protect her family?

I loved how the story flipped from past to present and back again, it made the story feel more real. Everything about this book just worked.

This book was pretty good yet a little bit predictable. It reminded me a lot of thrillers I've read before, but somehow less developed. I don't regret reading it though.
I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you NetGalley and to the publishers for giving me this ARC in exchange for my honest review!


I unfortunately DNFd this book pretty early on,a lot of books aren’t really capturing my attention lately. This is most likely a me thing but I couldn’t bring myself to continue to pick this one up.

This was an engaging thriller with many twists and turns. The characters came to life and I was so invested in how the story would end. I look forward to reading more from the author in the future.

#TheSlumberParty #NetGalley
Liz, Amy, Sami and Mo are childhood friends who have grown up with each other, knowing each other intricately and being throughout for each other. On the eve of their prom, at the slumber party, one of them dies and one of them is the killer. Cut to the present, Liz is a housewife and loving mother to Olive. She tries hard not to think about the night that destroyed her & her friends. But one day she receives a note, "I'm back. Did you miss me?" and her world starts to spin right away.
This book is told from multiple POV's, alternating between their childhood and the present life which is a thrilling roller coaster ride. As the book starts, you learn about their childhood - each of them with distinct personalities and backgrounds yet bonded by friendship and sisterhood. The author takes us slowly to the incident, alternating the setting with present - Liz meeting Sami and so on. Gradually, the cards are revealed, plot twists keep coming in and as a reader you are in for multiple surprises.
Thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for giving me an advance copy.

Loved this book! Reminded me of Pretty Little Liars. Friends are over for a slumber party, before dawn breaks, one of them is dead. One of them is dead, one of them is a killer. Fast forward, they thought they put the past behind them. But, then starts receiving notes. Couldn’t put down, would read again!

This book is going to be hard to forget any time soon. I was glued to the pages literally. Three friends, one dies or did she? I have whiplash from the twists and turns.

I am so impressed! Every chance I got, I was sneaking in a few pages of this thrilling book… Gripped my attention in a way not many books do

I absolutely love books with dual timelines. I also love books that unravel secrets from a group of friends. Thankfully, The Slumber Party had both!

The Slumber Party follows Sami, Liz, Amy and Mo and a tragic event that breaks them apart.

This was a super fun read but nothing groundbreaking for me. I enjoyed the ride and I’m happy I read it.

I was given an advance copy of this book from netgalley.com and the publisher in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are truthful and my own.

This book was pretty good. Is it going to change the genre forever? No, but it's still enjoyable. Honestly it's worst 'flaw' is that it is kind of predictable but any fan of these books can predict the end a mile away.

I thought it was enjoyable getting to the end. I was never bored. I liked the characters, and I thought the dual timeline worked well. It was a good story about the ways the same trauma can affect multiple people in different ways. Overall I enjoyed it, and would read more by this author.
