Book Review: The Secret Keeper by Kate Morton

Book Review: The Secret Keeper by Kate Morton

The Secret Keeper by Kate Morton was a great read. I became totally engrossed in the lives of the characters. The story is set in Europe and stretches over decades, from pre-WWII through modern day Europe. It begins with Laurel, the teenaged daughter of one of the main characters, witnessing a crime that turns her view of both her world and her parents upside down.

Flash to current day Laurel, a successful actress, who returns home for her mother Dorothy’s birthday.

Weekend Romance: What I Did For Love by Susan Elizabeth Phillips

I don’t know about you, but I’ve had a pretty stressful week full of headache inducing tech glitches. My absolute favorite way to de-stress is with a good book, which I’m sure you’ve figured out by now.

A great romantic comedy can take your mind off the real world and give you several hours of relaxation. Plus, there are all kinds of studies out there written by smart people showing that the healthy benefits of humor and laughing last for hours and hours. Where do I sign up?
