The gripping new novel from Liane Moriarty is our bestselling book of last week. Our reviewer loved Truly Madly Guilty and writes, ‘Moriarty is one of those rare novelists who writes for a wide audience but with a nuance and depth that sets her stories well above the ordinary’. You can find even more staff raves about Moriarty’s big, juicy, twisty novels here.

Last week’s bestselling books also include two wonderful literary Prize winners (The Natural Way of Things, All the Light We Cannot See), the beautifully packaged program for this year’s Open House Melbourne (Open House Melbourne 2016), and Ian McGuire’s latest novel that ABC’s The Book Club described as ‘Ridley Scott’s Alien set on a whaling ship in 1850s’ (The North Water).
