Moriarty, Liane. (2014). Big little lies.New York: Putnam.
Big Little Lies  is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, schoolyard scandal, and the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves just to survive. Madeline, Celeste and Jane are all at a crossroads in their life. I  loved the character development. Each person was distinct. The "who murdered who" kept it going. Sometimes it’s the little lies that turn out to be the most lethal. . .  A murder… . . . a tragic accident… . . . or just parents behaving badly? What’s indisputable is that someone is dead. But who did what? It does raise some serious questions about what you'd be willing to stake for your family and friends. Domestic violence is a silent epidemic that, sadly, goes on everywhere. Women need to feel empowered enough to seek help, but many don't risk it, knowing the consequences would brutal.
