Apples Never Fall by Liane Moriarty Review

It has been a while since I’ve written a long book review but while reading this book I felt like I needed to vent so here it is. This book was not my favourite. And maybe I should have stopped reading it but honestly by the time I was fed up with it I was already too far gone so I had to finish it.

One of the red flags for me is that this book centres around a family of tennis players and it turns out I don’t reading about tennis lol. I listened to the audiobook of Carrie Soto Is Back last year and it’s all about tennis, and while I thought that was fine, reading a second book about tennis cemented that it’s not for me.

Like Chase comes on and says NOTHING. Like what’s the point??? “What til season 4” nah this is not what a reunion is for. Why bring him here at all??

They also brought out Layla’s boyfriend and Chase’s brother Mason. And okay, that made sense to confirm about him and Layla being together but again it was kind of a nothing moment. But I am happy Layla is happy. I wish they had talked more about her growth this season and coming into her own because that was a moment.
