Bad Blogger

The last time I posted... NOVEMBER! Good thing no one's reading to keep track of such failings! Today I am reading the lastest by Barbara Delinsky, called The Secret Between Us. If you're in the mood for a depressing book, this is for you. When Deborah and her daughter are driving home from Grace's study date, they hit a pedestrian. Deborah tries to shelter Grace by assuming responsibility for the accident. Her lie traumatizes Grace. The family is dealing with many other issues as well, a recent divorce, a grandfather with a drinking problem, a sister who is pregnant. This book is just one crisis after another, with no light at the end of the tunnel. Don't read this book if you're depressed, it will send you over the edge. I'm disappointed; Barbara Delinsky is usually an author whom I seek out.
