Recenzii

Devilishly clever and beautifully written
Little Nothings delivers some searing and uncomfortable truths about motherhood and female friendship. Beautifully drawn characters, thrown together in the pressure cooker nightmare that is a group holiday. Entirely and chillingly relatable
Mayhew is brilliant on women and the complex ways in which their relationships can turn destructive. A true single-sitting read
A well-written, absorbing story that cleverly illustrates the psychological impact of nurturing a true enemy in your midst
Mayhew explores both the affirming side of female friendships and the darker currents of judgmental talk, financial peer pressure, and neediness. The most interesting part of the book is Liv, who's the narrator, for she is often not a terribly sympathetic character. Yet there is something admirable in how she fights to recognize and celebrate her true, autonomous self, even if that person is inherently selfish and grudging
Anchored by a deliciously layered and desperately unreliable narrator, Little Nothings enriches the familiar setup of an intruder shaking up a happy idyll with a compelling, creative structure and distinctive voice
A fun page-turner set on a Greek island paradise. This book balances edge-of-your-seat tension with gossipy fun as the friendships turn toxic, leading to a disturbing twist at the end. Perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty and Louise Candlish
Riveting
A shocking tale about loneliness, modern motherhood and toxic friendships
It's a one-sitting read, at times uncomfortable but always entertaining. And the twist at the end - which I won't ruin for you here ­- is as disturbing as they come
The compelling psyche of Liv, her inability to understand functioning relationships with those around her, including her husband and daughter, underpins the entire narrative, and her characterisation was both relatable and unsettling
Liv is a fully developed character whose palpable anxiety, desperation, and rage drive the diabolical plot to a calamitous conclusion. Lucy Foley fans, take note
