Book of the Month: February

Want to Know a Secret is my favorite read in February. This psychological thriller is twisty enough for me to question if the author has any diagnoses we don't know about. I cannot imagine how she creates these psychopathic characters, let alone the stunts that they pull. Of course, the author is a physician. I am assuming that she is a psychiatrist.

In this story, YouTuber April Masterson receives a threatening text message from an anonymous person, someone close enough to see what's happening in her backyard and that her son Bobby was not where she thought he was at. April was distracted while filming an episode of her baking channel and wasn't watching him. As the story moves along it's apparent that every character has a secret or two. Trying to determine which secret the title refers to is not easy. Perhaps that's the whole idea. I would really hate to find myself living on the same street as these people.

Want to Know a Secret is a psychological thriller on steroids. Be prepared to not sleep after reading this one but it is definitely worth it.
