Every Secret Thing Audiobook (Unabridged)

" An interesting story of what happens to the people touched or involved with the death of a baby by two young girls. "

" I just started reading Laura Lippman and this book kept my interest. I am looking forward to the rest of her books. "

" Like Capote's In Cold Blood it takes two to do what one wouldn't. Ending took me by surprise with the role of a third character. "

" Lippman takes the mystery genre a cut above the norm with well-written characters and a sense of realness. Here, she takes two young girls guilty of a horrible crime and surrounds them with mostly dysfunctional adults, who, in a way, are each accomplices to that crime. "

" Really good but really creepy. "

" A few engaging moments here and there and at times had potential for a better read, but in the end it fell flat and fizzled out without much intrigue. Not really my genre preference, so perhaps that's partially to blame. My biggest irk was the overabundance of details of minor characters and events. The author makes too many unnecessary connections and consequently fails to attach you more profoundly to the main characters. Probably won't read this author again. "

" The second best Lippman book I have read. The Characters are so easy to get involved with and the ending was so sad for one particular character. I had a great time reading this book. Excellent job, Ms Lippman! "

" Good book! I love this author...I haven't read a book by her that I didn't enjoy! "

" Very good story with mystery and unexpected events that makes it hard to put down. "

" I just got really bored halfway through and gave up on it. There were too many details and the characters were boring and there was not 1 that I liked. I thought that this book had lots of potential but did not live up to my expectations. "

" I picked this one up mainly because I kept hearing about Laura Lippman, a local writer whose books are set in Baltimore locales. I enjoyed it but was a little disappointed with the end. Still, I would read her again. "

" Entertaining enough for a novel on a trip. Writing was fine but nothing special. I do like the fact that most of the characters are complex women, but some of those characters were contrived in an attempt to create the necessary "who is the true sociopath?" dynamic familiar in mystery novels. "

" So while I found this to be well plotted w/ an engaging storyline, the lack of even one likable character made it hard to trudge through. "

" Good suspense set in Baltimore. Interesting storyline. "

" Extremely disturbing but well crafted. Suspenseful from start to finish. "

" This is a stand-alone book by Laura Lippman, not part of the Tess Monaghan series. "

" Another interesting story from Laura Lippman "

" mystery wasn't mysterious enough. too drawn out with too few developments. "

" a bit of a surprise ending, but took awhile to get there. held my interest though. "

" when i first started with this book it seemed like it was going in one way but as u get into it more u will start to see what is really going on. i love this book it really keeps u guessing and wanting to read more and more of it. "

" Really liked this book! The end is a surprise when you find out the true story concerning how and why Olivia Barnes was killed. "

" I usually like Laura Lippman but this one was especially bleak. "

" Took me forever to read bc there were too many unnecessary details that clouded the true story. Kept me reading however bc I needed to find out what happened to the missing baby/babies. "

" With all the procedural tv shows I enjoy, I keep thinking I should enjoy mystery books more but ultimately I'm disappointed. A quick read, the writing was entertaining enough, the plot was okay. I'd call this an airport read. "

" Nancy Porter and Detective Infante make an appearance in this one, about two girls who are convicted of kidnapping and killing a baby, and are sentenced to spend their childhoods in prison. When they turn 18, they are released, but the children of Baltimore start to disappear. "

" Good suspense set in Baltimore. Interesting storyline. "

" I was not overwhelmed by this book but it was good. I was intrigued and kept interested by the introduction of new facts that made me change my mind each time I thought I had it all figured out. "

" This is one of those books that I forgot I read. It blends in with lot of other crime books. "

" audio -- yes it is about old secrets which are exposed. "

" creepy non-series, psychopathic bad seed escapes "

" Pretty disturbing but good. No violence against animals. "

" Um, did I delete this review? I guess I did. "

" This was a great read. Big twist at the end that really took me by surprise! fun! "

" This story was fairly uneven. The characters were mostly interesting, but the resolution just felt withheld rather than built up to. Sometimes compelling, sometimes not. "

" Best of all her novels that I've read "

" It's about Two little girls who kidnap a baby girl and then smother her to death... "

" This is a very tightly written, suspenseful book. Once started it is very hard to put down...you just have to know what happened. "
