A very compelling story with a good premise. I wanted to keep reading to figure out how everything was connected. I thought the story flowed so easily and kept my attention. Every character had a secret and it was interesting to see at what lengths people would go to to keep it hidden. I originally read the physical book years ago and since it was our book club pick for this month decided to listen to it on audio. 4.5âï¸
I read this after Big, Little Lies which I loved. I did not enjoy this one as much. It dragged at points and was not as humorous. I was also not as drawn to the characters in this book.
A gripping novel that explores the impact of buried secrets on relationships and families. When a woman finds a letter from her husband meant to be opened only after his death, her world unravels. The book weaves together multiple perspectives, blending suspense, drama, and moral dilemmas. It kept me hooked from start to finish, making me reflect on the power of secrets and the choices we make in life. A highly engaging read, full of twists and emotional depth.
