2/5. While I enjoy the witty dialogue of the characters and the way Moriarty weaves the plot lines together this one was predictable and lacking substance. I read this after reading Big Little Lies and see a lot of resemblance between the two. Likely my last Moriarty read.
This novel reminds us about a disturbing fact of life: none of us really know anyone else incredibly well.
I like how all the individual stories tied in together. I really enjoyed the epilogue full of what if's.
I read this after Big, Little Lies which I loved. I did not enjoy this one as much. It dragged at points and was not as humorous. I was also not as drawn to the characters in this book.
