I’m a big Liane Moriarty fan and this book was not her best. It felt rushed. The wrap up was so, so disappointing. And all the covid stuff? Completely unnecessary. Really disappointing compared to her usual fantastic stories. Honestly the only story like wrap up I liked was Logan’s.
I enjoyed the story but it was wayyyyyyyyyyyyy longer than necessary.
My second Liane Moriarty book and it was okay. I really like her fun writing style. Her characters are interesting and quirky which I love. It was just a slow burn that didn't lead to much in my opinion. If it had been 150 pages shorter I think I would have been happier with it. I kept thinking okay finally we will get the big twist and it just never came.
I do like her writing style though so I'm willing to give another book of hers a try.

I enjoy Liane Moriarty's books; like most other people, I was drawn in by Big Little Lies. She's good at plotting, although the resolution of this one was a bit hokey. I did read it more or less straight through. It's reminiscent of Megan Abbot's The Turnout, as it is about a tennis (vs. ballet) obsessed family, none of whom are actually top-flight, although they are driven by their parents' (and, to be fair) their own love of the game.
Eu estava com saudades de ser feita de trouxa pela Liane Moriarty e este livro atingiu todas as minhas expectativas.
