THE BUSINESS TRIP by Jessie Garcia

 

Finally! A book that I didn't love beyond all measure, but just enjoyed. I was beginning to think that I just loved everything because I enjoyed the dissociation from reality that books provide so much!

This is my book club books and I like the twistyness of it. I had a hard time with all the different voices and I have to say that there isn't too much of a delineation in tone between the voices, but I also gobbled it down pretty fast so maybe I was missing the nuance. But it has been awhile since I read a murder mystery and I enjoyed the carnage and the red herrings and stuff. 

The premise is that two women have gone missing and are likely being held captive by the worst deluded master-of-the-universe-hair-product-using character I've seen in awhile. The story is cobbled together by the friends and co-workers left behind to figure out what the heck is going on!  There were a lot of moving pieces and I am currently trying to remember what happened at the end and am having a hard time, so it didn't stick with me. But it was some fun escapism.
