laurieb755 's review for:
The Last Anniversary
by Liane Moriarty
She's getting better. I can see it in her characters and plot lines. Liane Moriarty is beginning to come into her own in this, her second book. Thoroughly enjoyed the premise and unfolding of the plot. The believability of many of her characters.
Well worth curling up with a yummy cup of tea or cocoa or whatever, or just sitting in a comforting arm chair, and reading yourself into contentment.
Though will confess here that I could not do that with The Husband's Secret. I started it but couldn't will myself to visit beyond the first few chapters. Perhaps it is a tribute to Moriarty's success at setting up a thriller? A good writer coupled with my vivid imagination can transport me into the time and place of the story. That can be a problem if the story is a bit grey or horrific, so I am apt to censor a book, if need be. Seems to happen mainly with more current authors than those who I grew up with, and it happened with The Husband's Secret. I was leery of what I might find…
