Book Reviews of Secrets in the Shadows (Secrets)
Book Review: Better Than A Lot Of Them
Summary: 4 Stars
I have read the other reviews for Secrets in the Shadows and in some ways I agreed that the ghostwriter was becoming redundant. Even with Secrets in the Attic, I was sure. But now that I have read this latest, I find hope in him. This story started out being predictable, but towards the middle through the end, it was good. I felt as though for the first time in several years, a character in his books actually had character. I could feel her troubles, much like I did for the lead characters in VC's books that she actually wrote. This one had an actual personal side to the story.
I have been a VC fan for a long time now and have all of her books. If others want her ghostwriter to hang it up, then perhaps it should be, but I feel that he should continue. After all, if you don't like the VC books nowadays, don't read them! But some of us do like them, so don't take them away from us.
Summary of Secrets in the Shadows (Secrets)
Everyone Says
Her Mother Was Crazy.
Is She Doomed to Repeat the Past?
Up in the attic, that's where Alice's mother used to escape to...and it's where, so Alice has been told, she plotted the murder of her own stepfather. Now, years later, with her mother locked away for life, the attic is where Alice finds comfort in her aloneness, writing poetry and painting pictures. When Alice finally finds the courage to come out of her shell, exchanging her dowdy looks for flattering clothes and makeup, her life completely opens up -- she even attends the prom with a cute, popular boy. But it's a night that turns quickly tragic -- sending her newfound happiness crashing down around her, and hurtling Alice into a shattering new life, one that leads her to a shocking reunion with the shadows she had fled.
From the imagination behind Flowers in the Attic comes a sensational new novel that spins a seductive web between fantasies and lies -- and uncovers the price for keeping secrets in the shadows.
