The Seven O'Clock Club
by Amelia Ireland
The Seven O'Clock Club (11/11/2024)
I really enjoyed the initial part of The Seven O'Clock Club where the story focused on four strangers who, working with a grief counselor, slowly and with heartfelt support of each other come to heal their own hearts. The characters were well developed as were the friendships and even a bit of romance. But I found the plot twist, which came toward the end and without any foreshadowing to be quite a leap. Maybe if hints had been woven in, beyond the introduction, I would have been able to make this leap. I do like how Ireland writes and will read another when available.
