The Secrets She Keeps by Michael Robotham

BOOK BLURB

Meghan doesn’t know Agatha, but Agatha knows Meghan. And the one thing Agatha looks forward to each day is catching a glimpse of her, the effortlessly chic customer at the grocery store where she works stocking shelves. Meghan has it all: two adorable children, a handsome and successful husband, a happy marriage, a beautiful house, and a popular parenting blog that Agatha reads with devotion each night as she waits for her absent boyfriend, the father of the baby growing inside her, to return her calls.

Yet if Agatha could look beyond the gloss and trappings of Meghan’s “perfect life,” she’d see the flaws and doubts. Meghan has her secrets too, especially one that she dare not ever tell. Soon the lives of these two women will collide in the most spellbinding and intimate of ways, until their secrets are exposed by one shocking act that cannot be undone. From internationally bestselling author Michael Robotham, The Secrets She Keeps is a dark, exquisite, and twisted page-turner so full of surprises, you’ll find it impossible to put down.

MY REVIEW

Two pregnant women, Agatha and Meghan, are expecting about the same time… and both women are keeping secrets. One woman works in a grocery store and is fascinated by the other woman’s seemingly perfect life. After a brief encounter, both of their lives are changed.

Using alternating chapters, The Secrets She Keeps is told from both women’s point of view. The characters are well developed, with a bit of a slow beginning to develop them.

Though it started slow, it was building up to an gripping story. Once the story gets going, it moves along quickly. The book is divided into two parts, the before and the after.

The Secrets She Keeps is an exciting thriller. Some good twists, but fairly predictable.
