Big Little Lies

I was less than enamored with Truly Madly Guilty, my first book by this author. But this one, this one! Reading this novel was like eating ice cream. Yes, it had a guilty pleasure feel about it, but who cares?
Loved every minute reading of the helicopter parents, PTA nightmares, school politics, gifted kids versus "normal" children, bullying, sharp-eared mothers, mommy cliques, rivalries and jealousies, obsessions with weight, it was one of those I didn't want to stop reading. To hell with the chores!
What on earth was in those fizzy pink cocktails that set everyone's tongue to wagging on Trivia Night? Proves the theory that it can be dangerous to drink on an empty stomach. (view spoiler)

I enjoyed this one too, ZT. I've removed the guilty, truly one as I've read too many reviews saying it's not nearly as good. Great review!
I loved this one too! This will be on HBO February 19th. Can't wait!!! ;)
Nice review ZT! It is an addicting book. I'm looking forward to the HBO show too :)
Thank you Jen, Heather L, and Melanie! Will check out the HBO series.

It's on HBO starting next month. I really like Reese Witherspoon and imagine it's going to be good! I guess we shall see. :)
Oh, and I have to mention, The Husband's Secret is a great read, too! ;)
Great review, ZT! I thought this was so much fun, and agree with you on The Husband's Secret as well!
Terrific review!! I agree, this book was really, really good!!
