About this listen

Wife. Mother. Liar.

At first glance Emma and Lucie seem very different, but they share an unspeakable vice. Beautiful, wealthy Emma appears to have it all with a loving husband and a seemingly successful life, but a restless craving has driven her to foolish actions. Meanwhile, young widow Lucie is struggling to make ends meet while coping with a troubled five-year-old.

When the law catches up with them they soon discover what they have in common: They lie. A lot.

Punished with community service, Emma and Lucie form an intense friendship, finding an unlikely third ally in Florrie, a septuagenarian who offers wise words and a shoulder to cry on.

But the lies don’t stop. They are hiding their misdemeanours from their loved ones and neither want their shame to come to light. As these unhealthy relationships drive them towards destruction, can they survive the fallout from their deceptions or will their lies destroy everything they love the most?

Revised edition: This edition of Everyday Lies includes editorial revisions.

Highly entertaining and fell in love with the characters. The author took her time to develop what could have been a predictable storyline. I’ve not read this sort of book for years - but this adult female fiction for those of us who read “chick lit” in the 90s. Instead of stories about women and their love interests, it was about secrets that could destroy us, which when shared with fellow strugglers can provide the basis for lasting new friendships in unlikely places.

I’ve pre-ordered her next book. Fab job!

Excellent characters and story

Unfortunately I found the narrator to be really inconsistent. I thought the Canadian character was from Ireland or France! The rest of the characters were confusing so it took a while to work out who was who. The storyline wasn't interesting enough for me to persevere. I cannot comment on the whole book as I gave up after a couple of hours, but the scene setting sounded cliched and predictable.
