Truly Madly Guilty by Liane MoriartyMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Truly Madly Guilty is the story of regret and shame. The two main characters Erika and Clementine have been friends from childhood, but it is a strange relationship. Clementine feels a sense of obligation toward Erika, who is socially awkward. Both Erika and Clementine are dealing with the remnants of their childhood as it was, rather than how they wished it could be. When Erika's loud and congenial neighbor invites both couples over for a barbecue, events unfold that cause everyone involved to rethink their actions that night. The characters were well developed and the story moved quickly, with chapters jumping from the night of the barbecue to the present. I wish I could give this book a four and a half stars, it had great potential but at times felt almost too suspenseful which took away from the overall impact. Truly Madly Guilty explores the aftermath of bad decisions and how regret affects each of us differently. I would highly recommend this book.
