I actually did not get a chance to read Big Little Lies before I watched it on Amazon Prime. I think I binged the first season the same day and the second season the following weekend. I have to admit I really liked the show and as a reader I definitely do not want to judge the book by the series, s...
I am happy to say I enjoyed The Husband's Secret almost as much as I did Big Little Lies, and for similar reasons: great character work and insights. Looking forward to more books from the author!
Sometimes I get impatient with the kind of novel where you have to follow what seems like a bazillion characters and their disparate storylines, until those stories finally come together at the end. This one, however, kept me engaged from the beginning, because each storyline was populated with real...
I hope I've learned my lesson: don't start a Moriarty book unless I have plenty of time to finish it, because I can not put it down to go to sleep. Knowing I have to get up and go to work the next morning is not nearly sufficient to stop me reading just one more chapter, again and again until it 's ...

I so wish 'Women's Lit' was marketed differently. I was kind of embarrassed to be reading a book titled The Husband's Secret with a cover featuring a skinny Stepford wife. Beneath all the packaging was a story I quite liked. It follows three women in Australia, whose lives initially seem separate ...
It took me awhile to get into this book. The beginning was a bit slow for me, but once I got into it the book was great. I enjoyed the characters and how they all connected. Just to think that this was all about a letter in the beginning.. That wasn't even the half of it.
At first I thought the husband's big secret was something else entirely (I imagine I wasn't alone in thinking it might've been an illegitimate child). To me this book didn't have as big of an impact as another one from the author, Big Little Lies, which I'd read first despite being written later. Bu...
Perhaps it's just me, but I cannot like a book if I cannot empathize with any of the characters, and pretty much all of the characters in this story behaved badly except for Connor , starting with the titular husband, his perfect and judgmental wife Cecilia, Rachel, who despite the understandable f...
