Let’s take a look at Liane Moriarty’s best books!
You are reading: Best liane moriarty books
Earlier this year, in anticipation of her latest novel, Malibu Rising, I ranked Taylor Jenkins Reid’s best books. I really enjoyed putting that list together and thought it would be fun to rank Liane Moriarty’s books as well.
chances are you know liane morarty for her little lies. but I actually read her novels for the first time long before the serial version of that book came out. Would it surprise you to learn that she actually wrote more female fiction stories before venturing into darker domestic fiction? it is interesting to see how a writer’s work evolves due to time, maturity and, of course, literary tendencies.
Unlike straightforward thrillers like the Paula Hawkins stories, Liane approaches her recent novels in a tamer fictional style. liane has a unique style and that is one of the reasons why she is so popular.
here is the list of his best novels (in my opinion!).
A murder… a tragic accident… or are the parents just being bad? what is indisputable is that someone is dead.
madeline is a force to be reckoned with. she is funny, biting and passionate; He remembers everything and forgives no one. Celeste is the kind of beautiful woman who makes the world stop and stare, but she’s paying a price for the illusion of perfection. New in town, single mom Jane is so young another mom mistakes her for a babysitter. she comes with a mysterious past and a sadness beyond her age. These three women find themselves at different crossroads, but they all end up in the same shocking place.
Little Lies is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, the schoolyard scandal, and the little lies that can turn deadly.
