About this listen
The events at a school fundraiser night get quickly out of hand, and the fallout leads to devastating results for a group of four couples....
Question: How long does it take to tear someone's life apart?
Answer: Sometimes just one night.
From the outside the parents of the kindergarten class at Darley Heights primary school seem to have it all. Living in the wealthy Sydney suburbs, it's a community where everyone knows each other - and secrets don't stay secret for long.
The big date in the calendar is the school's annual fundraising trivia night, but when the evening gets raucously out of hand, talk turns to partner-swapping. Initially scandalised, it's not long before a group of parents make a reckless one-night-only pact.
But in the harsh light of day, those involved must face the fallout of their behaviour. As they begin to navigate the shady aftermath of their wild night, the truth threatens to rip their perfect lives apart - and revenge turns fatal.
The Trivia Night is a gripping domestic debut novel full of shocking reveals, perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty and Sally Hepworth.

Great fun and an easy read
Thoroughly enjoyed this relatable yet outrageous Sydney based school-mum drama. Suspenseful and satisfying. Highly recommend.

Almost stopped listening but I’m glad I didn’t…
I’m glad I stuck with it, in the end it was an enjoyable read.
The performance was off putting, the bizarre English/Australian accent was very unpleasant, in my opinion, it would have been much better had an Australian narrated the story.
The story itself was very enjoyable and what started as a slightly confronting storyline ended up being very much a bit of a page turner.
I look forward to reading more from this author.

Started strong but fizzled out, awful narration
The first third of the book which looked at the relationships between that characters and the dynamics at play in school parental social hierarchies was well written and interesting. The fallout from the trivial night started off well when it explored the emotions the characters felt around their decisions but it almost became a different book once the mystery started.
From that point it became predictable, boring and unrealistic- I had to force myself to finish it.
The narration was awful! All the characters sounded like they were straight out of Porpoise Spit, I was waiting for one to exclaim “you’re terrible Murial” I don’t think the characters were written as nasally bogans but that’s how they were portrayed.

My first audible novel
Before buying my first audiobook I always thought that the story was only part of the key to a good novel, the key was going to be in the voices. Victoria’s voice spoiled it for me, very hard to listen to the whiny voice, not anything like I imagined a snobbish well-to-do lady would talk.
Aside from that I really enjoyed it but did guess the ending about 3/4 of the way through.
Regardless, if you can deal with Victoria’s (thankfully she’s not the main character) you should thoroughly enjoy this one

Funny, clever with a twist at the end! The voice of Victoria annoyed me a bit but I still loved it!

Good story, poorly read
The story was quite entertaining and the main character’s “challenge” near the end of the book to the listener was well done by Ali Lowe.
The narration wasn’t good, but I ended up finding that quite entertaining too.

The trivial night?
Relying too heavily on multiple “relaying the story to someone else” povs, this felt very tell-tell-tell. And a lot of build up to much ado about not much. Any twists were fairly predictable and the stakes just never seemed very high. Fairly accurate representation of an affluent Aussie coastal town but clichéd characters kept things from ever shifting gears.
