Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
The razor-sharp new novel from the million-copy Sunday Times best-selling author of Queen Bee and Faking Friends.
Best friends tell each other everything. Or do they?
Georgia and Lydia are so close they're practically sisters. So when Lydia starts an online business that struggles, Georgia wants to help her - but she also understands Lydia's not the kind to accept a handout.
Setting up a fake Twitter account, Georgia hopes to give her friend some anonymous moral support by posing as a potential customer. But then Lydia starts confiding in her new internet buddy, and Georgia discovers she doesn't know her quite as well as she thought.
Georgia knows she should reveal herself, but she's fascinated by this insight into her friend's true feelings. Especially when Lydia starts talking about her. Until Lydia reveals a secret that could not only end their friendship but also blow up Georgia's marriage.
Georgia's in too deep. But what can she save? Her marriage, her friendship - or just herself?

Very much enjoyed this book. Usual Jane Fallon theme about betrayal and told so well.
The characters were appealing and I loved the dog.
Excellent narration

Fabulous
New to this author and loved this book, defiantly has alittle more twists and turns than the normal chick lit and was a brilliant listen. In fact I devoured it in a couple of days. The dog went for alot of walks. Off to Huy another

narrator performance let's it down
Narrator talks far too fast with weird shakey voice quality that sounds like it's recorded in odd echo recording in places.

Contemptuous Georgia. Hoping there isn’t too much the authoress in her.
Story line good but characters too high & mighty. Couldn’t really relate to the life of the couples & Lydia. Didn’t like portrayal of Irene & Frank. Made me feel rubbish actually. I started the book so I finished the book next time. I’ll don’t read reviews and not just read it because I enjoyed the previous Jane Fallon book.

Not the best in the World but light & entertaining
I'm an eclectic reader and I love all kinds of literature. This book's purpose is supposed to be light, relevant and entertaining and it achieved that. I really enjoyed it and I'd definitely read Jane Fallon again. I don't want to insult this by saying it's a guilty pleasure but actually, it's not the weighty literary novel of the decade that normally gers shortlisted for the Booker prize but its funny, tragic with some heart. She writes well for this genre and she knows her audience. She also writes very good observational internal monologue and her characters are believable as I've seen them in real life when I was in my 20s and 30s working in music publishing and TV & Film production years ago. I'd call this style Domestic Melodrama.

One of the best Jane Fallon books
I have read and listened to a lot of Jane Fallon books and this one was absolutely superb, on a par with Queen Bee in my opinion. I got through this one in a couple of days. 10/10!
