A murder...A tragic accident...Or just parents behaving badly? What’s indisputable is that someone is dead. Madeline is a force to be reckoned with. She’s funny, biting, and passionate; she remembers everything and forgives no one. Celeste is the kind of beautiful woman who makes the world stop and stare but she is paying a price for the illusion of perfection. New to town, single mom Jane is so young that another mother mistakes her for a nanny. She comes with a mysterious past and a sadness beyond her years. These three women are at different crossroads, but they will all wind up in the same shocking place. Big Little Lies is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, schoolyard scandal, and the little lies that can turn lethal.

"Y'all! Big Little Lies is one of the best books I've read in a long time. Liane Moriarty is a great author and I would suggest this book for anyone who enjoys a good novel about PTA mothers who are all up in each other's business. I haven't seen the HBO movie Big Little Lies but I can't imagine it's better than the book. Moriarty knows how to reel the reader in and as is the case with many of her books she is a master at the plot twist. I loved this book! And of course, Caroline Lee is an awesome narrator. "

Quotes

  • “Irresistible…Exposing the fault lines in what looks like perfection is a specialty of Liane Moriarty…Moriarty’s sly humor and razor-sharp insights will keep you turning the pages to find out.”

    — People
  • “If you’re looking for a novel that will turn you into a compulsive book finisher, look no further. Moriarty has produced another gripping, satirical hit…. Its can’t-put-downability comes from its darker subplots… A book that will make you appreciate the long days of summer.”

    — Oprah.com
  • “A fun, engaging, and sometimes disturbing read…Moriarty is back in fine form.”

    — USA Today
  • “The secrets burrowed in this seemingly placid small town…are so suburban noir they would make David Lynch clap with glee.”

    — Entertainment Weekly
  • “Ms. Moriarty’s long-parched fans have something new to dig into…that may give Big Little Lies even more staying power than The Husband’s Secret.”

    — New York Times
  • “Moriarty unlocks secrets hidden deep in suburbia. Artfully construed.”

    — Barnes&Noble.com
  • “Moriarty has produced another gripping, satirical hit.”

    — Huffington Post
  • “Tolls a warning bell about the big little lies we tell in order to survive. It takes a powerful stand against domestic violence even as it makes us laugh at the adults whose silly costume party seems more reminiscent of a middle-school dance.”

    — Washington Post
  • “[Big Little Lies] is remarkably new and fresh and winning…Moriarty keeps this high-concept plot aloft, largely because she infuses it with such wit and heart. She also knows not to overplay the message she’s sending: that we all tell lies—to each other and, more importantly, to ourselves.”

    — Amazon.com
  • “[A] darkly comic mystery surrounding a disastrous parents’ night at an elementary school fundraiser…[in which] the truth remains tantalizingly difficult to sort out. Deservedly popular Moriarty invigorates the tired social-issue formula of women’s fiction through wit, good humor, sharp insight into human nature, and addictive storytelling.”

    — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
  • “Lee’s unusual vocal timbre coupled with outstanding acting makes this a listening experience you can’t tear yourself away from. What a delight. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award.”

    " We watched a couple of the episodes on HBO first. We wanted a good book to listen to for a long road trip. It was crazy, because after several hours of driving,we'd start listening (again). at the hotel. It's the audio book you can't stop listening too! The narration is wonderful, very funny and charming. The story sucks you in and that's what makes it so good..We loved it!! "
