Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty
4.75
Rich mommy drama goes HARD! I loved the three main characters: Madeline, Celeste, and Jane. They all had very distinct and endearing personalities, and their friendship was very meaningful to me. I loved the drama at Pirriwee Public School - the excerpts of the parent's testimony was really interesting to read, especially when it conflicted with what we saw first-hand from Madeline, Celeste, or Jane's perspective. I liked the mix of thriller and interpersonal drama. Knowing that the story ended with someone's death, that knowledge gave the interpersonal drama much higher stakes.
I loved the three main characters, but moreover, I loved that each of their stories told a different lesson about our relationships with the people around us: Madeline's story told forgiveness, Jane's story told moving past trauma, and Celeste's story told knowing when to leave.
