It was awful! The story was totally disjointed and the characters were completely unbelievable. I have loved all of her previous books, but this was one of the worst books I have ever read. Just my opinion.
Funny you should ask this. I’m 1/2 way thru and just starting to get into it. I love Liane Moriarty … that’s the only reason I didn’t break up with it.
Quite disappointing. Especially if you’ve read any of her other books. I have loved every other thing she’s written. so has my niece, and I told her not to waste time on this one.
Not my favorite of hers. I finished it because I wanted to know what happened which ended up being strange and crazy ( not in a good way). I told my daughter not to waste her time reading it.
Glad I wasn’t the only one disappointed by this book. I have liked all her others that I have read. From all these comments it’s seems a lot of people found the same issues with it as I did.
I had checked this book out from the library and kept putting off reading it after all of these comments. But I finally took the plunge and it was a quirky creative easy read! Enjoyed it!
Oh I’d love to know too. Reading big little lies now
I didn’t care for it. I finished it but struggled. Slow moving and the storyline didn’t engage me.
Agreed. Did not enjoy it at all

I really liked it. The story is definitely out there but I enjoyed reading it.
It was weird but intriguing enough to keep me reading!
My book club read it and gave it a 2.4 rating.
Ty, I will move on to something different
I read it and liked it..some parts were really crazy but overall a good read.
I didn’t like it. Was rather unbelievable. Probably just me but I don’t like books that discuss drug abuse
Not her best!
It was very boring to me, I felt like NOTHING happened. 🙁
Meh
Liked but didn’t love ! I usually love her books
not great at all – disappointing to be honest
Have tried three times to get into it.
I really enjoyed it! Something different but interesting. It is an easy read.
Funny you should ask this. I’m 1/2 way thru and just starting to get into it. I love Liane Moriarty … that’s the only reason I didn’t break up with it.
I generally love her works. I’m disappointed I finished it.
Very strange!
Just started reading this, read mixed reviews, so will have to wait and see ??
The usual fascinating Moriarty read. She has such a twisted mind and I love it!
Loved it. Could not put it down!
Didn’t like it. Found it very different from all her other books, all of which I love.
It was ok but I didn’t love it as much as some of her others.
Didn’t like it at all gave up half way thru.
? Loved all her other books, not this one!
These mixed reviews are intriguing! I must look into this one!
It definitely wasn’t her best work ?
DNF
I didn’t like this at all they all seem like such phony people
I couldn’t even finish it and she’s one of my favorite authors. ????
It was okay…6/10
Dont bother. So disappointed!
I did not like it
Wasn’t my favorite ?
I thought reading it was intriguing but the ending totally fell short!
@Barbara 100% – if there are other books to read I would skip it…. aka skip it bc there are always other books to read
I did not care for it all.
No, not grt very disappointing ??
Meh
I wouldn’t bother better books out there
Read some and then stopped..havent found anyone who liked it.
8
Not worth the effort!
Not worth it at all!
Not one of the best. But I do love Liane Moriarty
Meh……
Couldn’t finish it. I kept waiting for something exciting to happen.
I am just reading The secret husband , not really sure about it thou ?
It was just okay. I finished it but if you have a great book read that first . I give it 2.5 out of 5.
Quite disappointing. Especially if you’ve read any of her other books. I have loved every other thing she’s written. so has my niece, and I told her not to waste time on this one.
I have a friend that didn’t really care for it, and I’ve been following the reviews on Amazon, not that great.
Little too much drug things going on for me.
It was not her best but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
Not my favorite of hers. I finished it because I wanted to know what happened which ended up being strange and crazy ( not in a good way). I told my daughter not to waste her time reading it.
Not the best of her’s
Hated it! What a bunch of selfish people. I kept expecting growth!
Not good..move onto a better book
skip it
I was disappointed.
I was disappointed also, not quite up to her usual standards, but worth a read!
Couldn’t get into it
Not one of her best. There are better books to read
I enjoyed it
I read it, a bit odd but I enjoyed it anyway. It was the first of hers I’ve read and have also been told it is not her best.
It was different to her other ones but l enjoyed it. Funny in bits. But not the best of her writing.
Bit slow to start, so many people to meet and sort out. Bit weird at en. Think she wrote it under pressure, just to get the next book out.
Read her others.
Glad I wasn’t the only one disappointed by this book. I have liked all her others that I have read. From all these comments it’s seems a lot of people found the same issues with it as I did.
Terrible!
