A domestic mystery that sadly didn't live up to the hype in my opinion with an extremely predictable plot twist.

Liane Moriarty's "Big Little Lies" is a masterful entanglement of humor, drama, and suspense. The novel delves deep into the complexities of suburban life through the stories of three women, their families and friends, all grappling with their own secrets and struggles.

The plot twists are unexpected and thrilling, keeping you on the edge of your seat until the very last page. "Big Little Lies" is an unforgettable journey into the darker side of friendship and motherhood, making it a must-read for anyone who loves a good mystery with a side of laughter.

5.0

- met een lach en een traan
- heftige onderwerpen worden afgewisseld met banaal geroddel en dat maakt het zo sterk
- gossip girl vibes
- vlot leesbaar en een heel goede opbouw van het verhaal
- goede vrouwelijke personages met afgewerkte persoonlijkheden, ze zijn niet perfect 
- mega aanrader!
