What fabulous, confident writing! One of the freshest, funniest, most exciting new voices I've read for a long time.

Beautifully written and emotionally intelligent. I rooted for Martha from the start.

Fresh and funny and REAL ... Martha really spoke to me. She will steal everyone's heart!

Very funny and delightfully relatable - this was a real treat.

[A] warm and insightful debut with a clever, funny and totally relatable heroine.

We've all been a 'Martha Ross' at some point, so we loved this hilarious and moving novel about starting afresh

This book is just beautiful inside and out . . . Written with such thought, such empathy, & capturing all those little nuances of living,loving and losing that make Lucy Dillon such a phenomenal storyteller.

Prepare for your heartstrings to be tugged! Moving and ultimately satisfying.

Tightly-plotted, impossibly twisty and wickedly funny, the latest page-turner from the creator of Big Little Lies serves up another wildly entertaining ride

Liane Moriarty's latest novel is a hoot

I absolutely devoured this book. Moriarty's main strength lies not (just) in the absolute compelling need to know how the story will end but in the perfectly crafted characters and a mix of humour with social observation. One of the best writers around

A psychological thriller that takes place at a wellness retreat. It's gripping and hilarious and perfect for the plane, mostly because you'll never put it down

A brilliant book

Moriarty struck gold with Big Little Lies and roars back with Nine Perfect Strangers

Moriarty is as adept at comedy as tugging on heartstrings

This wonderful novel had me utterly hooked. Hilarious reading at first, but then the tone becomes darker and more dangerous . . .

Moriarty expertly crafts each of the nine guests' backstories in this tense thriller

A suspenseful novel that makes you laugh out loud. Brilliantly drawn characters make this a compelling read

If you're in the market for a feverish page-turner give this thriller a whirl . . . [Moriarty] knows precisely how to weave a tantalising tissue of suspense, guaranteed to have the obsessed reader glued to every page

The scene is set for a great unravelling. People running from their pasts, presents and futures - what more could one ask for?

Skilful. Witty and fast-paced

Great fun

An insightful, twisty thriller set in a luxury retreat cut off from the outside world

Praise for Liane Moriarty

Wise, honest, beautifully observed. One of the few writers I'll drop anything for

Staggeringly brilliant, literally unputdownable

Like drinking a pink cosmo laced with arsenic . . . a fun, engaging and sometimes disturbing read

Keeps you guessing until the very end - perfect summer read

Moriarty writes vividly, wittily and wickedly

Straight-from-life characters, knife-sharp insight and almost unbearable suspense will have you racing through it

As brilliantly accomplished as it is dark, twisty and compulsive

Riveting drama packed with suspense and secrets

Perfect

A hell of a good book. Funny and scary

Fascinating and compassionate
