Secrets of Our House by Rea Frey
4.0
Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for this e-ARC in exchange for my honest review.
I was a tiny bit disappointed because this book was listed in the mystery/thriller section, and it was clearly a fiction book with a little suspense. The only part that was a bit intriguing to me was uncovering the secrets Desi was keeping from her family. I feel for Desi as she tells her story of just wanting the best for her family. She pushes her daughter to be the best and hopes to steer her in the right direction of being successful like herself. She wants to have her marriage to Peter work out, but it's been failing for a long time. Desi is keeping several secrets from Peter and Jules, and when they become known, it changes all their lives.
I really enjoyed reading about this family. I also enjoyed how it centered around a small town in the Blue Ridge Mountains with this grand house that Desi designed called The Black House. This family endures so much together. I highly recommend this heartfelt read.
I will post my review on instagram @thrillersandcoffee
