Back to the school yard with Big Little Lies

Have a cat? Love a cat? January 22 is Answer Your Cat’s Questions Day. Make sure you are prepared by reading this blog post!

And if you love to read about cats, the first three books of my Reg Rawlins, Psychic Investigator series are just $0.99 for a limited time only!

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme. Read the rules and more teasers at The Purple Booker. Anyone can play along.

I am currently reading Big Little Lies by Lianne Moriarty. What a fascinating book! While it is a murder mystery, you don’t even know who has been killed or under what circumstances. You just know that one of the parents was killed during the (primary/elementary) school’s Trivia Night. The book takes you through the various conflicts and secrets that have been festering in each of the women’s and men’s lives over the past several months, building up to what happened at the Trivia Night?

I didn’t know until I searched it on Amazon that there is a TV series based on Big Little Lies, starring Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, and Shailene Woodley.

Feelings like this should not be brought out in public.

Lianne Moriarty, Big Little Lies

A murder…A tragic accident…Or just parents behaving badly? What’s indisputable is that someone is dead.

Madeline is a force to be reckoned with. She’s funny, biting, and passionate; she remembers everything and forgives no one. Celeste is the kind of beautiful woman who makes the world stop and stare but she is paying a price for the illusion of perfection. New to town, single mom Jane is so young that another mother mistakes her for a nanny. She comes with a mysterious past and a sadness beyond her years. These three women are at different crossroads, but they will all wind up in the same shocking place.

Big Little Lies is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, schoolyard scandal, and the little lies that can turn lethal.
