Today I am reviewing Can You Keep A Secret? by Jo Lovett. What can I say other than I loved it and read in one day. Who doesn’t want to escape to an estate in the country. I have now added the author to my list of RomCom authors I love.
One New Year’s Eve, Georgie James and her friends come up with a genius plan to help them stick to their resolutions… They all write down secrets, seal them in envelopes and then post them to each other. The secrets will be revealed at the end of the year if they haven’t kept their resolutions.
It’s perfect. Except…
Georgie's secret is BIG... and revealing it could destroy their friendships. She has no idea why she chose that one to write down. There are plenty of innocent things she could have said – even admitting she finds newcomer Raf incredibly annoying would have been better.
What she does know is that there’s no way she can let her secret be revealed. Which means she needs to keep her (nightmare) resolutions and, most importantly, get her envelope back before anyone can open it. Which, given she sent her secret to Raf, means spending a lot more time with him than she’d choose to...
It had me thinking about all the white lies we tell to ourselves and others. Sometimes you can get so caught up in trying not to hurt someone’s feelings that in the end it can be worse than if you told them to begin with.
I’m hoping there could be a follow up book so we could catch up on the characters.
I will definitely read other books by this author.
