Three wishes liane moriarty reviews

A tale of three sisters, starting towards the end point and leading us through their lives with all the ups and downs, upsets and triumphs.
Whenever I pick up a Liane Moriarty book, I know that I am in for a good read. It sometimes can be dark, it will have characters who infuriate but also those who delight and it will be clearly written with a funny edge to it and a satisfying conclusion. That's all you really need to know.

Review: Three Wishes by Liane Moriarty
Three Wishes is not my favorite book by Liane Moriarty. Nevertheless, it is a good book that I was deeply committed and engaged it. Three Wishes follows the lives of 33 year old triplets- Lyn, Cat and Gemma Kettle. Cat has recently discovered a secret about her marriage. Lyn is dealing with a step-daughter, baby, and internal struggles. And Gemma’s relationship never seems to last after the six month mark. The book explores the lives of the three sisters through laughter, heartbreak, and happiness. The center themes in this book are marriage, family and children.
Like all of Liane Moriarty’s book, Three Wishes had a mellow and easy flow. It felt conversational and quirky. Although simple, the writing packed a punch with dark undertones. It was never predictable or repetitive.
The story was told through multiple perspectives. And because all of the sisters were unique it was never hard to guess which POV I was in. It was interesting to see how the sisters interacted with each other. They didn’t always play fair or even agree with one another, but somehow in the end they always supported each other. It felt like a true sisterhood that featured the good and the bad.
