Eileen is having a really really bad day. Her sister committed suicide and she found out her husband is having an affair. An interesting family drama where we learn of the love/hate relationship between the sisters and how incidents hidden from each other change the course of our lives.

What a read! I was happy to have started this on Friday night, because I could read into the early morning hours without guilt! The sister of a best selling author learns of her suicide. On the way to handle the services and try to piece together what could have happened, she receives life altering news about her own life. The book moves from the past, to the current time, and multiple narratives, but there's no confusion at all. I easily determined what had caused her death, but it didn't take away from the plot at all. I highly recommend Her Perfect Life.
Thank you for Sourcebooks Landmark and NetGalley for an e-ARC of this title in exchange for my honest review.

Eileen is shocked at the death of her sister. Clare Collins appeared to have it all, so Eileen is shocked when her sister, a famous author, is found dead of what appears to be suicide. It’s only when Eileen reads Clare’s latest novel, and reading between the lines, discovers that her sister’s life is largely an illusion, much like the stories she crafted. This book asks the question, how well do you really know the people you love? It’s often shocking at how good some people have gotten at hiding the truth
