Rd bk. everyone here is lying

Here are some notable quotes from Shari Lapena’s novel Everyone Here Is Lying:

“She knows that it’s not necessarily the ones who seem different that you need to be afraid of—it’s the ones who can carry off normal without anyone suspecting a thing.” 

“No one ever tells you how complicated it is being a parent. How much energy it sucks out of you. The toll it takes on a marriage.” 

“I’m autistic, not stupid.” 

“They hate each other; the poison between them will leach out to their kids. They will all be better off if they separate. If they stay together, they’ll become more twisted versions of themselves.” 

“Why do men always think they should be forgiven? That they only have to ask?” 


These quotes reflect the novel’s exploration of complex family dynamics, the challenges of parenting, and the hidden facets of seemingly ordinary individuals.
