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.

A gripping novel that explores the impact of buried secrets on relationships and families. When a woman finds a letter from her husband meant to be opened only after his death, her world unravels. The book weaves together multiple perspectives, blending suspense, drama, and moral dilemmas. It kept me hooked from start to finish, making me reflect on the power of secrets and the choices we make in life. A highly engaging read, full of twists and emotional depth.

I’ve read a few of Liane Moriarty’s books and this one is one of my favorites.
