I stumbled upon 'The Wedding Guest' during a weekend bookstore crawl, and it hooked me immediately. It's a psychological thriller that follows a woman who infiltrates a stranger's wedding, posing as a guest. The story unravels with layers of deception, secrets, and unexpected connections between her and the wedding party. The protagonist's motives are murky at first, but as the narrative progresses, you realize she's not just a random intruder—she has a deeply personal stake in the event.
The writing is sharp, with a tense atmosphere that keeps you flipping pages. What I loved most was how the author played with perception—just when you think you've figured out her agenda, another twist throws you off balance. It’s one of those books that makes you question how well anyone truly knows the people around them. By the end, I was left staring at the ceiling, replaying all the clues I’d missed.
