SOoo I haven't posted in a longgg time but I have still been reading away every time I could get chance!!! Everything has been so hectic!! My beauty business has taken off and third year of uni has come with a vengeance! So finding time to read has been massively important to me as reading is one way that I actually relax ..... Now to the book in question!!
After reading The Husband's Secret by Lianne Moriarty I can well and truly say I fell in love with her and would have gladly devoured anything by her again ... so I bought ....
Little Lies - Lianne Moriarty
The fact that Lianne and myself share a name means nothing, except she's obviously awesome! And to be honest it can be said that I had inflated notions of her writing after reading The Husbands Secret as that was just AMAZING. And lets just say I was not disappointed!
You start this book at the end and work your way back to it to find out what actually happened! The book starts at the end as someone is dead! You don't know who is dead or whether they died naturally or were killed or anything!! Anything could have happened for all we know!!!! This Is such a good technique for writing because now I have to carry on reading in order to find out what happened!!
SO Jane moves to a quite suburban town with her son ... it isn't long before she is taken under the wings of Madeline and Celeste ... all the women are at crossroads in their lives and need help from each other. The local school where all the womens children go is a hive of drama and activity which results in Jane, Celeste and Madeline being pushed further and further to the outskirts of what is acceptable at the school!
Many things happen in between but everything is leading up to the big event and this happens at a Audrey Hepburn and Elvis party organised by the PTA!
The Writing of this book is amazing ... at the end of every chapter you are brought back ot the police questioning the people at and surrounding the party, which gives an extra dimension to the book itself and the narrative.
I literally cannot recommend this book enough and the rest of Moriarty's writing ... for anyone who enjoys a drama, chick lit or a bit of mystery and twists! Lots of twists!!!
Have a look at it as I know that you will be as hooked as I was and read it all in one sitting just like I did!!!
Have fun :)
See you soon!!!
