I like that this book can be read as a stand-alone even though there is suggestion of a sequel. I like the flow of your review too

This book sounds very interesting. I don’t like reading backwards! This is book 3 and it can be done as a stand-alone, I’d prefer to start at book 1. Great review and I’ll keep it in mind.

Your review makes me wonder what kind of secrets are being kept. I definitely want to find out. I'll have to add this to my list of books to read. Thank you for your review.

Great review. I usually try not to read series that don't have stand-alone parts because most of the time I end up not being able to read the entire series, so I'm glad you mentioned that. You got me excited for Claire's character, I have a niece about that age so I would love to read more of a character of that age.

I admire the fact that the author skillfully propels the plot through a cast of well-developed characters. Hillary is a successful ghostwriter who is fiercely devoted to her family and friends. Great review

Sounds like an interesting book full of family mystery. The author must have had variety of ideas to come up with different characters like this. Am yet to read this book, Thanks for the review.

It sounds like a very intelligent plot. Secrecy is such a complex phenomenon that can make emotions explode and hatred reign supreme. It is a dangerous weapon that can create monsters in people. Quite a review. Thanks.
