The Secret Keeper

     
by Kate Morton






This month's selection was The Secret Keeper, another book set in England which recounts the tale of two women whose lives were intertwined. Later in life, the daughter of one of the women tries to piece together the story as her mother approaches death. What she discovers in the end is an unexpected twist in the story that none of us expected. We all enjoyed the book and would definitely recommend it. The book prompted discussions about our own mothers (and mother-in-laws) and we digressed so much that we hardly discussed the book! 

One of our book club members generously invited us to her house for dinner this month. We enjoyed a delicious meal and had a peek at her beautiful home. We also got to meet a new baby brought by another member, a beautiful boy that we took turns holding while he chewed on our fingers :)
