Resumen del Editor

Originally published as Little Lies.

Pirriwee Public is a beautiful little beachside primary school where children are taught that ‘sharing is caring'. So how has the annual School Trivia Night ended in full-blown riot? Sirens are wailing. People are screaming. The principal is mortified.

And one parent is dead.

Was it a murder, a tragic accident, or just good parents gone bad? As the parents at Pirriwee Public are about to discover, sometimes it’s the little lies that turn out to be the most lethal. Little Lies is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, school-yard scandal, and the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves just to survive.

Please note: This is the same audiobook as Big Little Lies, also available from audible.com

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A surefire hit ... The Aussie author of last year's runaway hit The Husband’s Secret comes back with another winning and wise novel that intertwines the lives of three women." ( Entertainment Weekly)

Loved it

Really enjoyed the book, the narrator was great, not normally a book I’d go for, but on recommendation I tried it and wasn’t disappointed:-)

Sensitive issues but made me laugh out loud

I wouldn't have ever thought I'd love a book about a bunch of Aussie kindergarten Moms but this was amazing. It dealt with serious issues really thoughtfully and also made me laugh out loud. The women in this book are awesome too - not perfect but you love them all the more for it.

Hard to put down.

I love Caroline Lee's narrating. The characters felt real. Thanks again for a good read. Can't wait for the next one.

Enjoyable escape to new perspectives

What made the experience of listening to Little Lies the most enjoyable?

Caroline Lee always gets her characters' voices just right and paces her story so that the plots flies effortlessly allowing the great writing too shine

What did you like best about this story?

The multiple character views and the mystery! Yes you start knowing a key piece of the puzzle and spend the rest of the book trying to work out how it fits, one of the those "6 months prior" scenarios, but it is done elegantly and adds a level of excitement to the read that I don't expect from Liane Moriarty

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Definitely and one I'll be listening to again

Compelling

Compelling story with witty and very recognizable characterization of the usual suspects who people a small town and especially a primary school. Works on many levels and packs a powerful punch.

A fantastic read

I loved it. The characters and drama in this story are alive in my real life. Primary school is no place for sissies.

Thought provoking and humorous

Love Australian narration, great storyline that is very relevant right now. Deep yet thoroughly relatable

Little Lies

great story. great narrating. I would recommend this book to everyone. I will look for more of this authors books.

Thought provoking

Excellent book. Uncomfortable truths that make you think. There is a little bit of each character in is all. Naration was not great. Well read, but the narrator's voice is too shrill. Overall enjoyable book.

Excellent Narrator

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. It is an interesting enough story, but the narration is excellent.
The theme of the book is how much of our understanding is based upon appearances instead of reality.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Madeline.

What about Caroline Lee’s performance did you like?

She's very talented.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Not especially.

Any additional comments?

Very enjoyable.
