Good Little Liars had a great premise,but it just fell short for me. The book was slow and wasn't really a thriller. The characters are well developed.

Good Little Liars was an interesting read. Although it was categorized as a mystery/thriller, it didnt quite read as one. It had the feeling of two tangential storylines fighting for importance in a solitary novel. On the one hand, there was an interesting story centered around the relationships between characters and the dynamics at play. The storyline around who killed Tessa did not seem to hold as much importance or draw as much interest, in comparison.

The story itself was well-written and fun to read, though the end felt drawn out. The characters started losing a bit of their depth, which was unfortunate. I did appreciate the diversity in characters though. Although I was not a fan of many of the characters, they spanned a broad range of personalities, which was refreshing.

It is hard to rate this book, simply because it feels much like two books in one. It was a very interesting experience overall.

A complete review will be posted on social media closer to the date of publication.

Good Little Liars is described as “A gripping, twisty novel about lies, loyalties, and the secrets we keep to protect those we love.”. After reading it I think the publisher may have confused their books! I wasn’t gripped, there’s a small twist but it’s not groundbreaking and overall I was bored reading this. I left the last ten percent because it was clear nothing was going to happen.

Unfortunately, I just couldn’t get into this book. The description indicated it was gripping, but sadly it just didn’t grab me. I also found the main character a bit over dramatic and the whole premise confusing. Sorry, this one just wasn’t for me.

“Good Little Liars” centers around an upcoming class reunion, and the secrets that have been held since the death of a classmate under mysterious circumstances. Unfortunately, the details of that mystery are revealed in excruciatingly slow fashion, while the story plods though the mundane current lives of those involved. The characters are confusingly intertwined and it was hard to keep track of who’s related to who, and how they figure into the story. It seemed a great premise, but it’s a slow read, and it just takes too long to get to gist of the story.
I was given this ARC by the publisher through @NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is a remarkable literary novel by a new author who is here is stay. There is a mystery at the center of the story but the heart of the story revolves around four women, an past accident in school, and how their lives and histories are shaped by the incident in a myriad of ways. Clearly drawn characters so well written that I could see them in a story so well written that I never wanted to end,

A bit slow to start for me but overall a good read with well developed characters, not one of my most favourite reads but it is a well written book.

Thank you to Netgalley and Bookouture for giving me the opportunity to read this book.

This book wasn't what I expected at all. It started quite slowly with the death of Tessa Terrano only really coming into it about a third of the way in. However this didn't bother me at all. The characters were so vivid I was quite happy to read all about their lives and how they intersected, although that could be a little confusing.
That is not to say that I wasn't interested in finding out what had happened to Tessa. The flashbacks concerning each character and how involved in and affected by her death kept me reading well into the night. I loved the little plot twists and was not expecting the ending at all.
This is the first book I have read by this author but will be looking out for her work in the future.

Review posted on Goodreads and Amazon

Twenty-Five years after Emma had graduated and lost her friend Tessa, Emma realizes that there may be more to her friends death after she finds a photo of her friend that just may shed some light on the relationship she had with a teacher. Or was it covered up with lies? This book is a page turner and I highly recommend it.

Really enjoyed this novel. The writing flowed and the characters were depicted very well. Couldn't wait to find out what happens next.

Good summer read! The story kept me interested. Good writing, good characters, and a good plot. This author is new to me but I will definitely read more.

I received this ARC from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for my honest review.

This is a really solid read, a believable plot and good characters. My first from this author but I will definitely read more.

This author is new to me, and I was pleasantly surprised. Interesting characters and a well paced plot. I look forward to the next one !

It’s been a quarter of a century since Emma graduated from her all girl’s school and just as long since her best friend Tessa was killed. Now, after all this time, Emma finds herself back on campus, living in an old staff cottage after her marriage has ended. When she finds a photo of Tessa taken just before her murder, Emma is convinced her belief that her friend was involved with staffer, now headmaster Jon Brownley. Ashamed because she never gave voice to those suspicions after her friend’s death years ago, Emma sets out to find out once and for all who killed Tessa. Tense and surprising
