Want to know a Secret by Freida McFadden

 



Synopsis :

YouTube baking sensation April Masterson knows the secret to the perfect gooey brownies. Or how to make key lime squares that will melt in your mouth. But if you keep watching her offline, you may find out some other secrets about April. Secrets she’d rather you didn’t know.

Like where did her son go when he snuck out of the house? What was she doing with the local soccer coach behind fogged windows? And what’s buried in her backyard?

Everyone has secrets. Some are worse than others. April’s secrets are enough to destroy her.

I’ll make sure of that.


This is what I say :

Freida is being rather mean here as she based the books' POV firstly from thge perspective of April. This sets the expectation that April is the main character here and that someone is out to get her.  It is true that someone is out to get her but she is far from being nice it seems.  Let's just say that perspective matters.

Subsequently, more about April is being revealed and readers like me felt a bit damaged especially if in reading, you are emotionally supporting April but then realised that she doesn't really deserve the support.

Again, lots of twisting plots that makes the book interesting.

My hints : I have already gave the hint. April is not as nice as you think.
