I've read three of Liane Moriarty's books I'm going in order! I've read Three Wishes, The Last Anniversary & What Alice Forgot. Just started reading The Hypnotist's Love Story. Love her books & definitely planning to read all of them!

This book is one of a quite rare genre, however, the plot twists and the suspense element are crafted quite well, so it makes for a good read.

I have just recently finished reading the book. It is a really good one. I won't give away any spoilers here. However, I would definitely recommend it to everyone. I am also interested in reading other works by her. I gave it 3/4.

This book definitely kept me guessing the whole time and it made me think. What would I do if I found out my husband was keeping a secret that big. I like the way she intertwined all of the characters in a way that was believable and easy to understand.

I really liked this book, along with several of her other books. The characters are believable and I definitely felt Cecilia's struggle about the letter.

I read this book last year and really enjoyed it. The subject matter wasn't what I expected, based on the title. I also read What Alice Forgot, but didn't care for it that much. I thought What Alice Forgot was too long and repetitive. I pretty much pushed myself to finish the book just to find out how it ended.

I've just found Liane Moriarty, and I love her books. I've read The Husband's Secret, The Hypnotist's Love Story, and I am now reading Big Little Lies. I loved the quote from The Husband's Secret, "Her goodness had limits. She could have easily gone her whole life without knowing those limits, but now she knew exactly where they lay." It really makes you think about what you would do in Cecilia's situation. I also love books with multiple viewpoints!

A secret letter, found by accident and read will her husband was still alive...her life changed forever. It was as if her life was a snow-globe and someone had shaken it violently. The snow finally settles in a snow-globe, and life finally settles in the story as pieces of a long lost puzzle begin to take their places. This is a book that cannot be put down.

This is the first book I have read by Liane Moriarty and I can say that I will be adding her other titles to my reading list. Her spiraling connectivity of the three women and their stories draws you into the ever-deepening vortex where the entire picture becomes almost clear. Just when you think you know everything that happened and who did what, Moriarty provides the Epilogue to give you a final dimension to the macro story. It is a lovely well-written story with wonderful characters that was very hard to put down.
