It wasn't too bad, but I was a bit disappointed with the ending of things or else I would've given it 4 stars. Moriarty's books are pretty quick to read and her writing flows easily. I liked the characters and how their lives intersected as each dealt with their own problems. But, like I said, I was disappointed with how everything ended - hence the 3 star rating. ...more

I really loved Big Little Lies, so I was super keen to pick up some more books from this author!

This started slow for me. It felt a bit all over the place and I couldn't find solid ground to propel me into the story. But once all the characters were introduced then it started to make more sense.

I did enjoy this, but I didn't find the characters as loveable or as interesting as in Big Little Lies.

Marriage problems? Something to do with the kids? Rachel reme

I’m giving this books four stars b/c of the epilogue. Honestly the story is “ok”. The secret is astonishing, however the writer could have done a lot more w/ it.

I could not put this down. I think it helped that my co-worker said he hated the book because the secret was SO awful so I was really expecting the worst possible secret... Then when the terrible secret did come out it didn't seem QUITE as bad. Really good read, IMO. ...more

Definitely not as good as I thought it'd be. Everyone said it was so good but it didn't do it for me. ...more
