Book Reviews of Public Secrets

Book Review: Threw it in the TRASH??? I can't believe it....
Summary: 5 Stars

I LOVED this book and when I read 'loves to read and travel's review on this book it made me ANGRY. Throwing away a book is wrong...pass it on to Goodwill if you don 't like it..it's not for you to judge what others may find appealing. I thought it was an outstanding book. I felt like I was IN the 60's, the 70's, etc. I loved the character development....I wasn't at all offended by the drug use and language because it fit the times. The 60's WERE full of love, peace, drugs, sex and rock and roll. That's not opinion, that's fact, and Nora portrayed it wonderfully in the book. Each decade was so well defined....I fell in love with each and every character (well, most of them....some were just nasty people, LOL) but I felt like I knew them. Like I understood them and their trials...their hardships...their faults.

I don't want to sound dramatic, but I was sad when I finished this book. It was THAT good. I read it quickly...hid out in long, long bubble baths so I could read as much as I wanted before someone needed Mommy again! LOL I love books like that...they draw you in, you lose your sense of where you are almost...I'm not delusional or anything, I just think that she's a fantastic writer that can place you there, in the scene.

Before throwing a BOOK in the trash you might want to reconsider and give it away. Those friends of yours might not be so easily offended, and, like many of us here, find the book a fantastic read!

Summary of Public Secrets

New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts deftly blends romance and suspense in this compelling novel of a woman whose career, marriage, and very life are threatened by the truth about her own past.
 
Emma McAvoy may have grown up in the limelight, but some secrets are hidden in a darkness no light can reach. Now on the verge of a successful career, and having fallen in love with the man of her dreams, Emma is looking to the future. Yet it?s the past that is about to catch up with her.
 
For Emma, her childhood had been almost like a rags-to-riches fairy tale?until the tragic night that changed her family forever. But what Emma thinks she knows about that terrible night and the man she?s about to marry is only half the truth. The other half is locked away in the last place she?d ever think to look: her own memories. It?s a mystery a handsome and relentlessly driven homicide detective needs to solve in a case that?s haunted him for years?and a secret someone will kill to keep.
