Big Little Lies
by Liane Moriarty
Finally!!! I have been dying to read this book for years now. I just haven’t had the chance until now. It has been killer trying to stay away from any details regarding the book or the show. Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty is a delicious blend of thrill and drama. It all starts with a schoolyard scandal that leaves the moms divided. Jane is the mother to Ziggy. She is young and unsure of her life so far. Madeline is the mother to Chloe, Fred, and Abigail. She is very sure of herself and will always make everything a big deal. Celeste is the mother to twin boys, Max and Josh. She is beautiful and wealthy, but no one knows what goes on behind closed doors.
I completely devoured this book. I sacrificed so much sleep just so I could finish it in one night. The writing is just absolutely addictive. There is no putting it down once you start. What starts out as a school issue, snowballs over the course of the year leading up to the school trivia night. What I loved the most is despite all the drama and hate in the book, there is a moment where they are all the same. There is a moment when that all doesn’t matter. They are all women and they are all in this life together.
It is definitely hard to pick a favorite because all the characters add so much in different ways, However, I absolutely adored Madeline. Yes, she was dramatic, but she was completely and utterly loyal. Also, if I ever had a daughter I would want her to be just like Chloe. Does this book have entertaining, petty drama? Yes. Does it also bring up important issues such as abuse and bullying? Also, yes.
Obviously, I am over the moon about this book. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would. However, 5 out of 5 stars will have to suffice. Now, I can’t wait to dive into the show!
