Big Little Truths by Liane Moriarty

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Big Little Lies—the runaway phenomenon that inspired the megahit HBO series—comes the sequel readers have been waiting for.

Remember Madeline, Celeste, Jane, Renata, and Bonnie? The last time we saw them, their children were just five years old, and the biggest drama was a missed birthday party invitation. Ten years have passed. The kids are in high school now, and the stakes have shifted from playdates to something far more perilous—drugs, sex, secrets, and the tangled truths these mothers have kept from their children.

When the high school principal receives a threatening package, the whole community goes into an uproar. But these women have troubles of their own. A mother-in-law behaving strangely. A marriage at a dangerous crossroads. A stranger lurking around the school, asking questions that only seem innocent. The ice has never been thinner.

With her signature wit and deep compassion, Liane Moriarty peels back the layers of modern family life—the humor, the heartbreak, the things we say and, more tellingly, the things we don’t.

As Freida McFadden, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Housemaid, put it: “Equal parts juicy, gripping, and impossible to put down . . . I loved diving back into the lives of these unforgettable characters.”

Whether you devoured Big Little Lies or you’re meeting this cast for the very first time, this one belongs in your bag for a rainy afternoon by the cove.

Pour the tea. Settle into your favorite chair. This is the kind of book you’ll want to linger over—and then press into a friend’s hands the moment you finish.
