Critic Reviews
“"Moriarty has taken chick lit to a new level with her clever, engrossing THE LAST ANNIVERSARY."”
"Riveting." -- Washington Post
"A stunner...[Moriarty's] prose turns from funny through poignant to frightening in an artful snap." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Moriarty has created a cast of appealing characters that she deftly juggles through various plot threads. . . . brisk and witty." -- Booklist
"Clever, engrossing. . . .Moriarty's style is breezy and light when it should be, dark and edgy when the mood turns. . . . A gasp-evoking zinger of an ending." -- Cleveland Plain Dealer
