Eve's parents kept her adoption from her for her whole life. Now, all of their lies start coming out and Eve has to find out what they are.

I enjoyed how this book gave differing perspectives of Stella and Eve. This gave me a glimpse of where the authors were going with each character. I felt like the story was steady, but started off pretty slow. When it started getting near the end and the lies were being exposed I felt myself turning the pages quickly to find out what happened.

Overall, I enjoyed this book and it's premise!

Thank you netgally for the read for an honest review.

Stella found out through e-mail that there is a woman out there who looks just like her and is an artist. From this information Stella assumes she is adopted and confronts her adopted parents who agree with this story. They try to keep her from looking into her birth mother but she does anyway. Throughout the story I almost stopped reading multiple times. While the author writes well the story was boring and hard to finish. I kept reading hoping for a plot twist or something new but was sadly disappointed.

Thank you to Netgalley ARC in exchange for a fair review.

Unfortunately, this was not a page turner for me. I DNF the book. I did not finish it because it was painful getting through the 60% that I was able to read. The way it was written caused me confusion-it alternated between narrators and that made it hard to get through.
I don't normally like to leave bad reviews but this one just was not a book I could recommend.

Overall I enjoyed All The Little Lies, plot moves along at perfect pace, just enough hints to keep you guessing. My only complaint would be Eve and Stella speaking and acting the same, a working class North-East girl would be very different personality wise than a middle class Southern girl.

Lies lies and more lies a thriller with twists and turns.I was drawn right into this well written thriller and highly recommend.#netgalley #harperimpulseandkillerreads.

Lies, lies and more lies. Eve knew that she was adopted but it seems that there is not much information about her biological mother. She started to discover the truth and it is not too good. Some surprising twists made me to really enjoy this book.

Who is telling the truth, who is lying? Can Eve trust anyone. Her adoptive parents haven't told her the whole truth. This book is told from different characters point of view and goes back and forward in time and in the past I have given up on a couple of books that did this as I have found them confusing but this author has made the characters distinctive and the plot easy to follow. It kept me engrossed from beginning to end.

All The Little Lies by Chris Curran was a book that I did not want to put down, it was so good! So many lies and twists in the dark story that I absolutely loved. I thought I had this one all worked out but I was so wrong - and I loved it. It was far from predictable and keeps you guessing until the very end. If you are a fan of psychological thrillers you need to read this one - you will not be sorry.

Eve has always known that she was adopted. But when a friend sends her an email with a link to a story about her birth mother with a photo her life is turned upside down. Her adoptive parents knew more than they let on. She mother was an artist called Stella and Eve is determined to find out more about her and how she died. Her digging puts her life and that of her newborn baby in danger. Told from alternative points of view of Eve and Stella we learn more about Eve's past with a shocking ending.

Thank you to Harper Impulse and Killer Reads as well as Netgalley for my advanced copy of this book to read. All opinions are my own and are in no way biased

What a fantastic read, plenty twists & turns. Only bit I found a bit frustrating was trying to figure out who was talking at times as found it hard to distinguish them. I would recommend this to anyone.

After a lifetime of secrets how far would you go for the truth?
An unputdownable new psychological thriller, full of twists you won’t see coming, from Chris Curran. Your whole life has been a lie…

One email is all it takes to turn Eve’s world upside down. It contains a picture of her true birth mother, Stella, and proves that Eve’s entire life with her adoptive parents has been a lie. Now she must unravel the mystery of Stella’s dark past. But what Eve finds will force her to take enormous risks, which put her – and her new-born baby – in immediate danger…

Twisty, dark and so well written! This is one must-read! The author has the ability to connect the reader with the characters and the story immediately.

Thank you #NetGalley for the ARC of All the Little Lies by Chris Curran

What a fantastic book, loved every page and it kept me gripped throughout, just loved the style of this author's writing. The only downside I did get a bit confused with all the characters and who was who when the storyline kept changing but this is purely my opinion not how it was written.

Overall this book was well written and I can thoroughly recommend I don'[t think you will be disappointed.

Thank you to Netgalley and Harper Impulse Killer Reads for giving me the opportunity to read this excellent book.

Art students Stella and Maggie are totally different people but when they first meet, against all the odds they click and Maggie invites Stella to live with her, at a reduced rate, in the house that her now absent father gifted to her. They get on well although they are from different social classes; Maggie’s family are wealthy and Stella’s are right at the other end of the scale. She was mainly brought up by her lovely Nana. Nevertheless they enjoy each other’s company though; Stella is quiet and lacking in self confidence, Maggie is enthusiastic, exuberant and an all out extrovert. They quickly become best friends and confidants. Maggie already has a wealthy, married lover who coincidently owns an Art Gallery, specialising in discovering and developing new, young talent. She generously introduces Stella to him and he and his business partner are dazzled by Stella’s talent. Both Maggie and Stella are invited to provide their art at a forthcoming exhibition and they are destined to be centre pieces of the exhibition catalogue. Everything is falling into place for the starry eyed and beautiful friends.
A generation later, Eve is expecting a baby. She and her husband Alex know their baby will be female and are keenly awaiting her arrival. They have also selected a name for their little girl; Ivy. They have decorated a nursery for her and the rocking chair sits ready for Eve and Ivy’s use. It’s an exciting time for them both, but secretly Eve is desperate to know more about her birth mother and father. Her adoptive parents loved and cherished her throughout childhood and she was very happy. She knows she came to them to be fostered at a very early age and that they later adopted her. She loves them dearly and it seemed to her that she had always known that her birth mother had been unable to provide for her forever. She was too young and had problems of her own. Her birth mother knew that her baby would have a great life with her adoptive parents, whom she knew and liked. Eve is determined to use this waiting time to learn as much as she can about her natural parents who will soon become grandparents for Ivy.
But someone is seriously set dead against Eve and her subtle investigations. The more she finds out the twitchier they become until at last Eve’s and Ivy’s life is in grave danger. What she discovers proves to her that her whole life has been shaped by lie after lie and someone is desperate that the truth must never be revealed. 'All the Little Lies’ is a tightly plotted and compelling story, written in dual time frame and with two strong main characters. The chapters are clearly annotated with which narrator is telling their story and there are more than the two women who contribute as narrators. There are quite a few characters but all are strongly crafted and superbly developed. The story is involving from the very start. It is beautifully written and highly addictive. I really loved it and was totally floored by the final of many twists, but I liked it all the same. With strong issues like jealousy, revenge, greed and secrecy, this novel is surely destined to be extremely popular. I received a complimentary copy of this novel from publisher Killer Reads through my membership of NetGalley. These are my own honest and well considered opinions that are uninfluenced by any other reviews or publicity. This is a multi layered and absorbing story filled with interesting and diverse characters and plenty of interest to keep you engrossed. It’s a 4.5 from me.

This book had the potential to be a really good book, but unfortunately it didn't do that for me. The idea was really good, but the delivery fell short. It was way too fast paced, lacked depth, and it is marketed as a psychological thriller but it was no such thing. It was more Agatha Christie meets contemporary.

Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Really enjoyed this story, both eve and Stella were excellent characters to follow. Did not see the final twist coming - loved it. What a twisty turny fun read.

Thanks NetGalley for the ARC

Very good mystery about a woman who was adopted. She receives a picture innocently from a friend and it sets off a series of uncovered lies, twists and turns in the story. There is a big shock towards the end just when you may wonder 'when will the lies end'? There are so many characters that could be the "bad guy" but everyone seems to be lying and capable.

Many thanks to NetGalley, Harper Impulse and Killer Reads for this ARC.

All the Little Lies by Chris Curran is the very best type of mystery, one that is almost an unbearable slow burn of tension, leading to an explosive climax. I could not turn the pages fast enough.

The novel is presented from dual perspectives and alternates between Eve, in present day, and Stella Carr, Eve's birth mother, in 1986, around the time that Eve was born. Stella has achieved moderate success in the art world, but is believed to have died in a mysterious fire in Italy years earlier. Eve, possibly as a result of her own pregnancy, begins to seek answers about her past. She is certain that her adoptive parents know far more than they are willing to divulge. So begins Eve's quest to uncover her mother's past, and to learn the identity of her father. Secrets and lies, particularly those by omission, haunt Eve, and she is no longer sure where she can place her trust. As her husband Alex notes, "the search for Stella Carr has disturbed somebody", but who? What long hidden secrets will Eve's investigation expose?

This novel took hold early on, and kept me riveted throughout. I will definitely add Chris Curran to my list of authors to watch.

Many thanks to NetGalley, Harper Impulse and Killer Reads for this wonderful ARC.

I was hooked from the beginning. Eve's parents lying about her adoption and how all the lies start crumbling down kept her intrigued from beginning to end.

The dual narrative was well written. You can feel distinct personalities between Eve and Stella while reading. The pacing was steady throughout the book except at the ending when everything comes together and I felt like I had whiplash. I still don't know if that was a bad thing or not. I think I would have like to have uncover the lies a little slower. It all happened so fast that I was confused at one point.

All in all, I would recommend this book.
