17 Books to Read If Your Obsession With Big Little Lies Is Going Strong

There are a bunch of examples of the ups and downs that modern marriages face in Big Little Lies, a theme which is more fully explored in Taylor Jenkins Reid's After I Do. The book tells the story of Lauren and Ryan, who decide to take a year off of their crumbling marriage in hopes that they'll eventually be able to fall back in love. The only rule is that they're not allowed to contact each other; other than that, anything goes. Lauren's experience leads her on a path of self-discovery that might make you reconsider the traditional ideals of marriage, monogamy, and what truly constitutes a happily ever after.
