Barnes has done an amazing job creating the people in this world, and I look forward to reading more about them in future Debutantes novels.Īnd never fear, the cherry on top of the Little White Lies sundae is that there’s just enough romance to keep things interesting. Part of this came from Sawyer’s sarcastic quips and jokes, while some just arose from how familiar the characters and the family units felt.

My other favorite thing about Little White Lies is that it’s downright hilarious. Whether it’s detailing the somewhat flipped dynamic ( Gilmore Girls style) between Sawyer and her mother, diving into her grandmother’s past with her daughters, or pointing out the minute personality traits that have surely manifested from the other debutante’s relationships with their own mothers, there seems to be something that everyone can relate to. Mother-daughter relationships can be very complicated beasts, and Little White Lies tackles all kinds of them.
