Okay, guys. I’m going to tell you the biggest secret I’ve discovered so far for 2017…It will get you reading more books, faster than ever. Read on if you want your mind blown…it’s…audiobooks. Okay, so maybe I’m a late bloomer on this one. But for real, y’all, this is a game changer. Just like cell phones, Myspace, Facebook, insert-anything-technological-here-that-I-discovered-years-after-everyone-else was. But hey! I just used a gif. Besides the few audiobooks I’ve heard on road trips, this was my first non-vacational audio book for my […]
Don’t you forget about me
I’ve been meaning to read some Liane Moriarty for the longest time. Everyone said they were unputdownable books about suburban drama and they weren’t wrong. What Alice Forgot was completely addictive reading and just what I needed. Moriarty tackles hard topics in an easy to digest way. The premise is a bit far-fetched but works once you just buy into it. Alice Love hits her head in the gym one day and wakes up thinking it’s a decade earlier. At 40, she’s a completely different […]
Just tell me what happened already!
I think this is my fourth book by Liane Moriarty. I started with Big Little Lies, which I loved. It was one of my favorite books of the year. I was really looking forward to readingTruly Madly Guilty (2016), and I was very excited when I was finally able to get my hands on a copy. There were many things that I really liked about this book: I continue to be impressed with Moriarty’s characters and lives. However, her concept was frustrating and is beginning to […]
The most successful formula ever.
Truly Madly Guilty follows the classic Liane Moriarty formula, and that is in no way a bad thing. A Big Event happens. We aren’t told what it is. It happens at a normal, mundane gathering (a backyard BBQ) but it is a huge deal. A few married couples (Tiffany and Vid, Clementine and Sam, Erika and Oliver) are dealing with the fallout from the Big Event in various ways. At first you think you may not be able to keep that many people straight, but […]
Truly Madly Wonderful
The latter half of July is an absolute insane time for me at work, 10-12 hour days usually without a lunch break, and by the time I get home I’m too bleary eyed to read. Luckily, work began to let up right around the time Liane Moriarty released her latest novel. I read all of Moriarty’s novels last year so this was the first time I had to wait for the author to write something new and the year wait was quite painful (it’s probably a […]
One Hell of a BBQ
I think Good Reads is a great site for many reasons; one of which is that it lets me know when authors I have read (and enjoyed) are releasing a new book. I purchased Ms. Moriarty’s latest tome (seriously, it’s over 400 pages and has pretty small print) on Tuesday after receiving such an alert, started it Wednesday, and stayed up way too late finishing it last night. Badkittyuno’s review provides the plot detail, so I won’t go into that too much. I enjoy Ms. […]
