Big Little Lies
Liane Moriarty’s novel Nine Perfect Strangers blew up last year, and it’s set to be made into a star studded movie later this year. She also wrote Big Little Lies, which has been turned into a TV show by HBO. The series revolves around three seemingly perfect mothers who find themselves wound up in a murder investigation. The cast is stunning, and whether or not you’ve read the book, you’ll find yourself becoming connected to their individual stories. If you love a show that intertwines delicious drama with magnificent mystery, this is the one for you.

The Stranger
Netflix’s The Stranger is one of those ‘just one more episode’ shows, where you’re four episodes deep before realising you haven’t blinked in hours. Gripping is an understatement. It’s based on the novel of the same name by Harlan Coben, and if you managed to miss this one during its major hype earlier this year then what are you waiting for? If it leaves you wanting more then don’t worry, it’s rumoured to be granted a second series. In the meantime, Netflix’s Safe is based on a book by the same author and is just as brilliant.
