Rating: ⭐⭐  (2/5)

I was really excited to read The Midnight Feast, but really struggled making it through to the end. The story started off interesting for the first few chapters, and then got so bogged down in multiple characters backstories that it felt like nothing interesting was happening for far too long. Things definitely picked back up towards the end, but by the I was so bored I just wanted to finish the story and be done with it.

I did like the paranormal elements, and found a few of the characters real identities and reasons for being at The Manor interesting, but there were just too many characters involved in the secret from the past and doing devious things to make it at all believable (it also got a little confusing). This seems like it would have been a better novella than full book. I will definitely give Lucy Foley another try in the future; this book just wasn’t for me.

Thank you to NetGalley, Lucy Foley, and William Morrow for an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.
