Book Review #761 - Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty

22057173







'I guess it started with the mothers.'

'It was all just a terrible misunderstanding.'

'I'll tell you exactly why it happened.'

Pirriwee Public’s annual school Trivia Night has ended in a shocking riot. One parent is dead. Was it murder, a tragic accident...or something else entirely?

Big Little Lies is a funny, heartbreaking, challenging story of ex-husbands and second wives, new friendships, old betrayals and schoolyard politics.

No. 1 New York Times bestselling author Liane Moriarty turns her unique gaze on the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves every day and what really goes on behind closed suburban doors.

Let me be clear. This is not a circus. This is a murder investigation.


My Rating: 4.5/5


I decided to buddy read this book with my mum as I had two copies of the book and thought we could watch the TV show adaptation afterwards.

I have heard so many good things about Liane Moriarty and especially with her being a fellow Aussie I thought it was about time I picked up one of her books.

Out of all of the characters I definitely liked Jane the most as she was the closest to my age and her son Ziggy was the same age as my nephew who I spend a lot of time with.

Ziggy actually reminded me so much of my nephew especially as my nephew just started kindergarten this year as well.

This book has the main mystery and then there is another one thrown in there that I never even realised was a mystery until it became the plot twist of all plot twists.
