Promise Not to Tell: A Novel Audiobook

" Another book that just doesn't hold my interest.. "

" Very good story, chilling and heartbreaking. You really feel for the characters and can understand how easy it is to lose innocence. "

" Okay - I agree with Marla, the Mom was the best character, although I did like Potato Girl. "

" I think this would make a great movie. I rarely like movies better than the book, but as I read the book, I could imagine it as a really scary, suspenseful movie! "

" I like a really good ghost story. Particularly one that has a murder mystery tied to it. This one also has a coming of age story in it as well. It's a good one. Very well written. "

" This book was really good, it had me on edge the whole book! It was a little sad but still a good book. "

" Riveting. Excited to read more o her books. "

" I really liked this book, wanted to keep reading it. BUT, I am not a fan of "super natural" killers. Meaning, I want a flesh and blood killer. I don't want a dead person taking over another person's body. Just seems unrealistic. But the premise, characters, and writing made me read to the end. Worth my time, but just barely. "

" I never really cared about the characters and a lot of the plot seemed contrived. I was expecting better. "

" a bookclub pick - interesting story, very suspenseful and an easy read "

" This was a fun mystery/ghost story. "

" I had high hopes for this one but it was just ok. "

" I loved this book. The suspense kept me turning and even at some point looking over my shoulder late at night. I loved it and thought it was so fun to read. Some language. "

" A very interesting mix of reality and the supernatural... although, at the end, one can still wonder if the supernatural in the story ever really existed. Great story, great mystery. "

" Great debut novel. Hard to put down. "

" nothing what you would expect. keeps you engaged "

" This book was an intense and quick read. I couldn't put it down. An interesting story, mystery, ghost story that spans decades. "

" Incredibly easy, and predictable, read. "

" Awesome page turner, I promise you will not want to put down. Read 2 times I liked it so much! "

" "I couldn't put this book down. Very descriptive and I got a good visual picture of the Vermont setting and characters. Great character development and author interweaves the past and present to very effectively to tell the story!" "

" fast read. Mystery. Enjoyed reading it. "

" I thought this was an "ok" story.....a murder mystery/ghost story set in a small town, alternating between the 1970's and the early 2000's. In my opinion, its geared more toward a teen audience, but I enjoyed it. Its a fast read with a little over 200 pages. "

" This was just fun to read, light. Not too scary at all, but entertaining. "

" Excellent read. Had a hard time putting it down. "

" Great mystery novel that keeps you guessing until the end. I was constantly trying to figure out what was going on & who the bad guy really was (I figured out some of it but missed a few vital clues along the way). I can't wait to check out Jennifer McMahon's other books. "

" Title is more compelling than the novel. "

" Great little story. Goes back and forth between past and present. "

" what a very sad book, but good! "

" This was my least favorite of all of her books-I just did not really like the main character. "

" This was decent-- a real page turner and the characters felt real to me, which I liked. *minor* spoiler-- [spoilers removed] "

" It wasn't as good as I was hoping it would be, but (aside from the beginning) it was mostly well written and interesting. The ending didn't really do it for me. But I enjoyed it at least, and I can see why other people would also. "

" I really loved this book! It had a suprise twist at the end as well. Im excited to read more of her books "

" Just not as good as I had hoped.... I finished it just to see the mystery solved and was totally underwhelmed. Ok but forgettable. "

" This book blended urban legend and small town life together very well. Each page kept your attention, and the McMahon had you wondering--is it super natural or real. "

" Very quick read. Also super creepy and even a little bit laugh out loud funny. Pretty perfect combination. "

" I really like this book but it is super scary! The story starts off slow but picks up and then gets creepy. If you like ghost stories you will love it. "

" I thought that this book sounded interesting, but as I started it I just couldn't get into the story. It just isn't for me. "
