"This book was a wild ride, that's for sure!"

"I'm not sure why, but I liked the show better than the book. I thought the book was a little boring. There were more twists in the show, and, of course, Reese Witherspoon!"

"
I absolutely loved the beginning of this book. It gave me the giggles in several places.
The characters are totally relatable and each of the 3 characters the chapters focus on are all living a different life style. You have a single mother, a divorced but remarried mother, and the beautiful woman who is in the perfect marriage (or is she?).
Lots of chapters end with little blurbs from character interviews that is the only insight you get in the trivia night death until the last 50 pages. And a twist in those pages blew my mind.
This book lost my full 5 star review as the middle got a little boring. Super strong start, strong closing, but it could have been shorter. "

"This book wrecked me. Even though I watched the show first, this book was so captivating that I inhaled it. All of the characters show different aspects of family life and what is going on underneath the candy coated exterior. Highly recommend. 9/10"

"I'm usually an insufferable snob about this genre, but I'm listening to the audiobook and it's really good - perfect narrator. And it's funny! Are all of her books so self-aware? Thanks for the recommendation. : ) "

"I think this book could have stood another round of edits - the mommy wars stuff at the start dragged on way too long and there was a lot of stuff that felt like filler, but I did like the overall message."

"Delishously twisty and fun, this new-age, who-done-it unfolds with unique flair that brilliantly keeps you guessing until the last page!"

"Very interesting and kept you guessing as to who dies until the very end! 3 very different women are connected in a crazy way and there are plot twists throughout the whole book. Only complaint is that it was very slow and had to get into at the beginning but does begin to pick up "
