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?
"Big Little Lies" follows three women, each at a crossroads: Madeline is a force to be reckoned with. She's funny and biting, passionate, she remembers everything and forgives no one. Her ex-husband and his yogi new wife have moved into her beloved beachside community, and their daughter is in the same kindergarten class as Madeline's youngest ("how "is this possible?). And to top it all off, Madeline's teenage daughter seems to be choosing Madeline's ex-husband over her. (How. Is. This. Possible?).
Celeste is the kind of beautiful woman who makes the world stop and stare. While she may seem a bit flustered at times, who wouldn't be, with those rambunctious twin boys? Now that the boys are starting school, Celeste and her husband look set to become the king and queen of the school parent body. But royalty often comes at a price, and Celeste is grappling with how much more she is willing to pay. New to town, single mom Jane is so young that another mother mistakes her for the nanny. Jane is sad beyond her years and harbors secret doubts about her son. But why? While Madeline and Celeste soon take Jane under their wing, none of them realizes how the arrival of Jane and her inscrutable little boy will affect them all.
"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.

This book was recommended by my friend. She just finished watching the mini TV serial and she loved it. She said she run into a bookshop and flipped through the pages trying to find out who was murdered and who is the murderer. As soon as I got a copy from ...
评分真的很喜欢电视剧的配乐,很好的彰显了剧中主人公的情绪,那种表面的平静和私下的暗潮汹涌让我感受到一种冲突的美。小说和电视剧还是有些内容上的不一样的,电视剧为了增加戏剧冲突还是增加了一些情节的。整体感觉小说更完整,人物性格更加鲜明,而且很多看似碎碎念的小细节,...
评分慧木 读莉安·莫利亚提,你需要多少带着点游戏的心态。故事的缘起从来都是一个突然意识到自己已经不再是青年期的女人,“跐溜”一下就四十岁了,然后在伤心地发现自己不再年轻的同时,也尖锐地觉察出了日常生活中的缭乱……别别,别以为这个四十岁的女人就是书里的主人公,她...

评分读《小谎言》时,我在想,到底有多少人默默地将伤口隐藏起来,戴上假面以幸福示人。无论是事业有成,还是家财万贯,其实都不是幸福的保障。欺骗别人很容易,欺骗自己却很难;得到别人的艳羡很容易,让自己心灵充盈却很难;享受某时某刻的温存很容易,维持积年累月的安稳却很难...
看完迷你剧再找来原版读的,简单流畅,通俗易读,好几个章节的末句让我起鸡皮疙瘩,家庭伦理故事穿插了很随意的悬疑,同名迷你剧真的好看太多。
评分原来是他/她?!前面节奏略慢,铺垫的略久,到书最后的1/3节奏紧张起来,有点放不下来。由bully引发的domestic violence问题,感觉都是karma。我这句话用的英文们可真高级啊【自豪脸
评分2016第二本推荐的五星书????
评分充满挣扎和现实的书。这世界上没有那么多非黑即白的事,每个人的心里也都有正反的两面。心底里最深处的想法,往往表现在意想不到的重要事情上
评分几年来看的唯一一本小说。很好的故事,很紧凑的情节。
