Liane Moriarty - One of my favorites

From my recent Instagram post:

USA TODAY describes Liane Moriarty’s writing: “Like drinking a pink cosmo laced with arsenic.”

Moriarty needs no introduction to the avid readers among us. For those of you who may not have had the pleasure of reading one of her books yet, you’ll recognize her work from the HBO series “Big Little Lies.”

One of the things that strikes me about Moriarty, besides her ability to draw dynamic characters whose lives seamlessly interweave, is how much she loves the art of writing! I enjoyed this glimpse into her history and process. I hope you will, too!
