This story switches between what happened before and after the barbecue. The reader doesn't know what actually happened for much of the story, but it changed the lives of everyone in the book. You get to see inside most of character's heads before, during and after the event. All the people are c...
This is my first Liane Moriarty book and I wasn't really impressed. I thought the majority of it was fairly boring. The climactic part is supposed the be the barbecue which the entire time we have no idea what happened. And once we get to that point I felt totally let down.... Three couples were a...
Three couples share a traumatic experience that tests themselves, their friendships, and their marriages. This plot is a slow starter as we see the characters floundering in the aftermath, with flashback interludes that tell the story of the “day of the barbecue”, so the reader is kept in the dark a...
Actual score 3.5.I enjoyed this book. I was starting to find the circuitous route to the main event tedious, but then Moriarty got there.

This in-depth look at a group of neighbors makes for an interesting read, although it starts off way too slowly. Six neighbors and three children get together for a barbeque when something goes wrong. The tease of what happens at the barbeque isn’t revealed until halfway through this lengthy book. ...
I enjoyed this book, but I have to say it could have been a bit shorter without losing any of the impact. After The Husband's Secret and Big Little Lies, maybe I was expecting too much but this one wasn't as big a hit for me. Three couples spend an afternoon at a BBQ in one of their gardens and 's...
Thanks to Net Galley and to Penguin UK- Michael Joseph for providing me with a free copy of the novel in exchange for an unbiased review.
