There were a lot of similarities between the two books, but I think Truly Madly Guilty‘s fatal flaw is in the pacing. This was my second Liane Moriarty book, and perhaps Big Little Lies was simply too tough an act to follow. She shows how guilt can expose the fault lines in the most seemingly strong relationships, how what we don’t say can be more powerful than what we do, and how sometimes it is the most innocent of moments that can do the greatest harm. In Truly Madly Guilty, Liane Moriarty takes on the foundations of our lives: marriage, sex, parenthood, and friendship. Two months later, it won’t stop raining, and Clementine and Sam can’t stop asking themselves the question: What if we hadn’t gone? Having Tiffany and Vid’s larger than life personalities there will be a welcome respite. But theirs is a complicated relationship, so when Erika mentions a last minute invitation to a barbecue with her neighbors, Tiffany and Vid, Clementine and Sam don’t hesitate. A single look between them can convey an entire conversation. If there’s anything they can count on, it’s each other.Ĭlementine and Erika are each other’s oldest friends. Sam and Clementine have a wonderful, albeit, busy life: they have two little girls, Sam has just started a new dream job, and Clementine, a cellist, is busy preparing for the audition of a lifetime.
