The little stories she told at the event I attended I can relate back to all her work and enjoy knowing that little bit more. I met Liane Moriarty this year and am not at all surprised that I love every book she’s written. I love a good contemporary read, it’s not all about rocket science, and for me it’s all about enjoyable bantering fiction. Down to earth and a touch self-deprecating, AKA real! Here’s another bit of gold “Someone did a ladylike fart during Beginners Yoga for Mums-to-Be”. Lyn had seen her walking down a street of parked cars, winding each time she saw a parking ticket on a windscreen." (This is pretty close to me actually, I empathise with Gemma, I really really do!) ‘About time.’ ‘He’s just surprised, poor Dad’, said Gemma, who had always suffered from excessive empathy.
"He’s experiencing empathy for the first time in his life” said Cat with a noticeable lack of empathy. All the characters were quirky and real, the story line funny, and every step of the way was completely engaging. I smiled all the way through with this Aussie story. The Kettle triplets jumping around to this song with abandoned pleasure made me smile. Teletubies and Bananarama’s song ‘Venus’ being a couple of them. I love when the books I read contain little tid bits of pop culture references that I can relate to and really bond with. This one in particular shows me we are of the same era. I don’t see that she has anything to improve on if I was to be honest! I just love her original stories, she's got a flair for it. Ha! But I’d do anything for some extra excitement.
