2 ⭐. Why did I read this? I liked the location I guess. It was set in the next town over from me. Amazon and Goodreads descriptions said it was a dark comedic murder mystery. I never saw it, just a lot of spoiled unhappy rich people. And the murder that was coming soon? Didn't happen until the last chapter. 🤨🫤😡

azulaco That‘s disappointing. Wasn‘t this a Mindy Kaling book? 1mo
Blueberry @azulaco I just googled it. You are right. 1mo
Pogue I was looking at picking that one up as it is a local town. I think I will wait a bit now. 1mo

3.5 Stars • "The Lost Vintage" by Ann Mah follows Kate Elliott, a sommelier studying for the Master of Wine test, who returns to her family's vineyard in Burgundy. While there, she uncovers a hidden cellar containing a cache of wine, along with belongings of an aunt she never knew existed, Hélène Marie Charpin, who was a teenager during the Nazi occupation. ⬇️

suvata The novel delves into the secrets of Kate's family history, the realities of life during World War II, and the choices people, especially women, had to make. It offers an intimate look into the wine-making process, French culture, and the impact of the past on the present. 2mo

This was an entertaining read. College friends reunite, but they all have their issues & troubles and all is not as perfect as it seems. Then one of them ends up dead.

Mehso-so

A group of friends from college reunite for a luxurious weekend in Napa. As the wine flows so do the old rivalries and resentments. I always love a good college reunion story and was fairly engaged on this one until the ending. It felt rushed and somewhat ridiculous.
