Little Rumours by Bryony Pearce
5.0
Wow, this book really grabbed me.
Little Rumours is told from three mums’ points of view, Naomi has lived in Exton Cross all of her life and knows everything and everyone. Aleema has lived there for three years and has not a single friend and Kelly is the outsider and has a past that she doesn’t want anyone else to know.
One of the children goes missing and the police are trying to find where she is and why she has been taken we get to delve into the three women’s lives more and learn that not all is as it seems and they all have secrets.
The book flowed at an even pace and we got to know each of the characters well, there were times when I liked them all, times when I didn’t quite get what they were about, and times when I didn’t like them at all.
The finale was very good and unexpected. What a brilliant book, I will definitely be looking out for more from this author!
