Nine Perfect Strangers by Liane Moriarty

Nine Perfect Strangers 
Liane Moriarty
2018
5/5 stars

Tranquillum House, a remote, elite health retreat, offers a ten-day session that is advertised as an experience that will change your life.  Nine guests arrive to participate: a young married couple, a family of three, and four individuals.  During this ten days, the unexpected happens in many ways, and the lives of these nine do certainly change.

Moriarty is an exceptionally talented writer.  She juggled the voices of the nine guests, plus three staff members, skillfully enough that all twelve were recognizable as separate persons.  The plot was generally riveting, and the prose engaging.    I will definitely be reading more by this author.
