Nine Perfect Strangers by Liane Moriarty

4.5 Stars

Why haven’t any of you read this yet?!?!?!? I’m the worst at posting timely reviews so you’ve had nearly a month. I can’t wait to see what others think of this. Take note it is different than any of the other Moriarty books I’ve read to date . . . but somehow it’s also the same.

The story here is about exactly what the title states: nine perfect quirky strangers. More specifically, they are: Frances, Jessica and Ben, Heather Napoleon and Zoe, Tony, Carmel and Lars. All with different reasons which have brought them to a place called “Tranquility House” . . . .



And thus begins a new take on the old “getaway at a manor house” story where the guests will work on both their bodies . . . .



As well as their minds . . . .



All while figuring out the answer to the question . . .



As I said above, Nine Perfect Strangers is different than anything Liane Moriarty has written before – and to me it seems like she’s really hit her stride. She is a master of the ensemble cast, filled with fully fleshed out characters who spins such a tightly woven yarn you don’t even know where it’s going until you’re there. I think it’s safe to say that I officially drink her Kool-Aid and if that makes me the chickiest of all chicks then I’m embracing that moniker . . . .
