The Secrets She Keeps

From the first sentence I was totally hooked to this book. There is lots of twist and turns... and, surprises. Absolutely amazing.

Highly recommend but not for the feint hearted. I love how the book is presented from the two main characters and takes us through their journey.

The author has done his research..
as with all his books I was captivated till the end.

Never dissapoints. This book is totally absorbing. Always look forward to his next publication.

Narration was fantastic. A very interesting book mostly about a mental illness, sad in parts , an excellent story . This really kept me listening, I could've listened to it all at once if i had time .
Typically good book from Robotham

Michael Robotham writes individual books and so far I've enjoyed them. This book was beautifully written and read. It does encompass crime but is not a 'blow 'em away' police drama. Well worth the five stars I gave it.

Ever have the feeling that an author has been pressed too hard to produce a "winner" for its Time? This era has prompted some faux news and this novel feels as though some very used, pre-digested elements which came from a t.v., soft news story, have all been laboriously regurgitated as a pop story.
It is painful to see a normally entertaining writer succumb to the tedious memes of fertility issues, Home Counties mums, mummy bloggers, blah, blah.. Really?
There is no tension, there is no surprise - it feels like it's lost in a non genre, too well!
Please. Writers. Stop using one narrator, end of chapter, another narrator... getting wearying and overused.
Going to limp off now and read something meaty from the 70's where the literary voice was respected and had a chance to sparkle.

This is such a change of genre for this author that I actually found myself wondering if he really wrote it!
It is a good story and beautifully written characters whom I could not help but feel empathy towards.
However there are some inaccuracies to do with pregnancy and birth which I feel there is really no excuse for these days...not exactly difficult to research!
On the whole I enjoyed this but really hope that the author brings us more Joe O'Loughlin instead! Stick to what you're brilliant at 😉

Once I started to listen I was swept away in the emotions of the story. An excellent book , I think it's well worth a listen, but I imagine for some people it may be quite difficult.

Very different from his previous books. Could this be a woman writing under a man's name? Very good though, really enjoyed it.
