Big Little Truths

by Liane Moriarty

Released August 25, 2026

Why we recommend it

Ten years after Big Little Lies, Madeline, Celeste, Jane, Renata, and Bonnie are parenting teenagers when a threatening package and a stranger near the school force old secrets back into the open. We recommend this warm, sharp, twisty return for its female friendships, family dynamics, and abundant book-club conversation.
