This book was weird. It started out as a psychological thriller, and ended up being a mushy feel-good story. Most of the book leading up to the mystery of what happened at the BBQ was very slow, though the chapters were short and switched time and perspective enough to keep from being monotonous. The BBQ revelation was something of a let down, and the rest of the book veered into an Aussie version of "This is Us."

Truly Madly Guilty was the first book I have read by Liane Moriarty, and if not for her popularity (implying that this book is a fluke), it would be my last. 3 stars because I read it in 2 days, so it must not have been that bad....... or it could be that my knee is sprained so all I can do is sit on the couch.
