Truly Madly Guilty by Liane Moriarty
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS. I don't reveal the exact plot points of the book, but discuss the structure of the book which for some could spoil it.
I didn't really enjoy this much. I think seeing HBO's great "Big Little Lies" ruined it for me. Reading the same back-and-forth structure between some "big event" and the following days was tedious. When what happened during the big event was finally revealed, I was completely unimpressed. I'm annoyed with myself for reading all the way through and finishing the book. I was strung along and it kept my interest long enough to find out what happened on the big day, but I should've stopped reading after that. I guess I kept waiting for something interesting to happen, but it never did.

i agree. and you're funny to warn of potential spoilers because there really aren't any. ;) authors need to change it up, but i bet the publishing co says, "ok, we need another one similar to big little lies"- since clearly that was such a success and money maker.
