Description

From the author of Here One Moment and The Husband’s Secret comes the #1 New York Times bestselling novel about the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves just to survive.

THE INSPIRATION FOR THE AWARD-WINNING HBO® SERIES STARRING REESE WITHERSPOON, NICOLE KIDMAN, SHAILENE WOODLEY, LAURA DERN, ZOË KRAVITZ, AND MERYL STREEP—AVAILABLE TO STREAM ON MAX®

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.

    I loved the mini-series. I was a bit hesitant to read the original work, but I am glad I did! I could not put it down. The internal workings of the characters minds is wonderfully written. I could feel the tension and drama come off the pages.
  • What a Book!

  • Attention Grabbing Until the Very End

    Reading this book felt like watching a snow globe after it’s been turned upside down. Watching (or reading) each little piece fall together, page by page. Nothing is what it seems and the characters are all very relatable. A great book and I recommend it to everyone.

    This book was off the chain. That means good to those. (that don’t know) I collect books that I consider to be a “classic” & one I’ll read numerous times. It’s going in my library for sure. Girl’s ya gotta get it. Easy read with a glass of wine...or not.
  • Impossible to stop turning the pages

    I tried this book in an effort to rekindle my love for books. I picked this book up on a Thursday afternoon and had it finished by Monday night. I am a full-time college student who also has busy weekends. I couldn’t stop thinking about what would happen next in the plot line. I highly recommend this book for anyone who likes an eerie drama.

    What a great book! Read in in one rainy weekend. The buildup to trivia night is delightful with the snide comments of the school mums and dads. I definitely enjoyed it and recommend it highly.
  • Entertaining and enjoyable
