A review by jackiemontt
The Secret Place by Tana French

4.0

"I won't go into much detail, but this book was a very fast read for me. I really got into this while taking a vacation and finished it up on another vacation. This had a slow beginning for me but really picked up through the middle and end, and was so beautifully written it was a breeze to get through.

I really loved the back and forth of the timeline in this book. I was excited to change up the story form before to after every chapter and I think it made it go by very quickly. I really cared about all of these characters and wanted to know about their lives and what happened that fateful night.

Although this book is about trying to solve the murder I think it's more about the characters and their metamorphosis through the book. Holly and her friends growing apart as many friend groups do towards the end of high school, Detective Moran learning his place in the force and his partner on the case Detective Conway fighting to be a woman in the force."
