With her blend of wit and intrigue and authentic, relatable characters, Big Little Lies author Liane Moriarty knows how to craft an engrossing novel, and one of my absolute favorites of hers is What Alice Forgot. This page-turner is guaranteed to make you laugh and cry all the way through if you've ever been in a relationship or wondered "what if" about what led you where you are now and who you're with.
Love quote: "Early love is exciting and exhilarating. It's light and bubbly. Anyone can love like that. But after three children, after a separation and a near-divorce, after you've hurt each other and forgiven each other, bored each other and surprised each other, after you've seen the worst and the best — well, that sort of love is ineffable. It deserves its own word."
