The Black Book of Secrets by F.E. Higgins

5.0

I loved this books! It was so engrossing and captivating. The characters were absolutely phenomenal. I think that middle schoolers would definitely enjoy this books because it is a little dark (deaths, murders) but not in a completely morbid and pointless way. However, since it is a little dark, I don't know if I could choose it as a book club possibility but I think it would be a great add to a library. I like the premise that everyone has a secret and something you just have to talk about that eats you up until you let it go because everyone can relate to that. That characters aren't perfect and there is no clear "hero" per say once you've finished the book makes it different from a lot of other children's books. I absolutely recommend this one to everyone 4th grade and older.
