I’ve already started to read another book by Liane Moriarty too.

I can highly recommend this book to all thriller lovers as it was so well written and a brilliant read. Macmillan is partnering with words in Maplewood, NJ, Bookends in Ridgewood, NJ, and Book Revue in Huntington, NY for this exclusive conversation. I loved the way author Liane Moriarty writes. This was a really, really good storyline. There are sad and tense moments but also plenty of humour within too. And producer David Heyman, who was behind the Harry Potter films, has optioned Apples Never Fall. I adored the way the last few chapters were written with an explanation of all the goings-on throughout the book which meant that it wasn’t left on a cliff-hanger. The miniseries of Nine Perfect Strangers, a bestselling novel in Australia when it was published, was released in August and stars Kidman, Michael Shannon and Asher Keddie.

I didn’t have a favourite character, although I’m not sure if I liked or disliked Savannah. The was a good breakdown of all the characters which gave me a clear picture of their different behaviours, mannerisms, etc. I enjoyed the way the book was set in a dual timeline which made the story become an absolute page-turner for me and I struggle to put it down. She was battered and bruised and they took her in. Last September was a big change to all their lives when a strange girl turned up on their parent’s doorstep. The book switches between last September and the present time. The dilemma is whether to report her missing to the police as she had been arguing with their father just before she disappeared and would the police suspect their father of doing something to her? Apples Never Fall begins with the four Delaney siblings discussing their missing mother.
