Book Review: A Secret Kept

A Secret Kept is by Tatiana De Rosnay-author of Sarah's Key-one of my favorite books of 2010!! This also happened to be my first reading experience on an e-reader, my dad's Kindle, but we'll talk about that later.

I expected A LOT from A Secret Kept because I loved Sarah's Key SO MUCH-and I was a bit disappointed. It was an ok read but definitely not a top pick for 2011, that's for sure.

A secret Kept is about a brother and sister's discovery about a big secret behind their mother's life and untimely death when they were still children. De Rosnea also explores the brother's relationships with his parents, his ex-wife, his new girlfriend, and his children I usually really enjoy books that delve into these nitty gritty details-and De Rosney did do a good job with this, but there was something missing. I can't put my finger on it though!


Anyway, A Secret Kept was so-so. that's pretty much all I have to say.

  1. This was very hard for me to read. It had moments and I thought finally we have something interesting but it was short lived. Too many pages of blah. I miss the writer who wrote Sarahs Key.Great story, well written w/ unexpected corners to go. Kept me up half of the night! Recommended!

However, people that succeed at internet business ventures put considerable time and energy in to the success of these business. The term online business refers to any presence which is created for the objective of building an income.
