This was so good, I couldn't stop reading because I had to know what happened. The secret was so unexpected, so much different than I thought, which is why I didn't see it coming. But after finding out the secret, the whole dynamic of the book changed and if possible, got even better.

I loved the characters and how their lives all intersected with each other. Secrets can make or break a person and it's amazing how one simple act can change the course of so many lives. Liane Moriarty is a great writer, her words just flow so effortlessly. I could read her books all day!

Good premise...bad ending.

I really hate when the movie is good and entertaining and then they just RUIN the ending! That's what this movie did. The whole point that they are making is that this social media platform is taking over people's lives and not being as helpful as they were intended and need to be stopped. But in the end, she shows the world that the leaders of the company have secrets and then SHE becomes the leader...making the social media platform bigger and more intrusive.
In my opinion, it is almost more satirical in making a comparison to a modern day "big brother"

She is a divorcee that suspects the new ice cream man might be selling more than ice cream from his truck. He is an undercover cop watching the frazzled mom that is the prime suspect in a check-kiting case. Neither expects for a love connection and a sweet romance to occur while uncovering the secrets about each other.

While this book was originally written in 1988 and newly released on ebook, it still stands the test of time. I enjoyed the whimsy characters (her neighbors are a bunch of fun-loving snoops and gossips), the unexpected attraction and romance, and the touch of mystery.

Goliath brought an epic conclusion to the Leviathan Trilogy. I read through this book quicker than the others (and that is saying a lot). As the crew of the Leviathan continue their mission, the action and adventure increases! Tensions rise as secrets long kept come into the light. Alek wants to do the right thing, but is his judgement clouded? If you are looking for something new to read, this trilogy is where it is at! Watching Alek and Deryn learn, grow and mature along this journey was a delight. This is a great story and one that I look forward to revisiting in the future.
