The Talk of the Party by Foluso Agbaje

Hello my lovely readers! I'm just chugging along on these reviews lately! Let's get into it.

SYNOPSIS
In a family built on lies, what happens when the truth comes out?

Bukola Obanile’s 60th birthday party is the hottest ticket in town. But champagne isn’t all that is being served…

The Obaniles picture-perfect life is the envy of all Lagos society, and everyone wants a piece. So, when renowned matriarch Bukola’s birthday approaches there are no expenses spared, five hundred guests are invited, and her four children all in attendance. Everything will be perfect, just as planned.

Except living the dream comes at a price and, as the party draws closer each of the Obanile children find themselves embroiled in scandals that could shatter the flawless reputation their mother has carefully built.

As the music builds and chandeliers glitter, this one perfect night could be all it takes to destroy a family built on deception…

MY THOUGHTS
This book fell flat. I hoped it would be a great Nigerian-based domestic thriller, but there were an abundance of characters that made it hard for me to follow or care.  Honestly, it took me forever to finish this book, because I just didn't find it interesting, but I wanted to see how it ended. 

Again, I was let down. Oh well, on to the next book!
