The Last Anniversary by Liane Moriarty
5.0

Move over [b:The Husband's Secret|17802724|The Husband's Secret|Liane Moriarty|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1460577225l/17802724._SY75_.jpg|23986788], I have a new favorite [a:Liane Moriarty|322069|Liane Moriarty|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1459827224p2/322069.jpg] book! This is a charming family drama with several interwoven story-lines and a nice little mystery at it's center. The story moved swiftly, and as a reader I felt connected to and invested in all of the characters. This felt like a Netflix/Hallmark movie and has me wanting to move to my own Scribbly Gum Island!
What I most appreciated about this novel was the satisfying ending. Approaching the final act I was convinced there was no way this book could end with all my wishes for each character being met, but somehow it concluded in a believably imperfect way.
