Can you feel it? The “R” months are approaching- September, October, November, and December.
But before the cool air and pumpkin spice everything whisks us all away, you may be able to squeeze in one last warm-weather vacation.
If you are headed poolside and are looking for an entertaining thriller to take along, then the PMC summer read may be a good fit. Every Last Secret by A.R. Torre is a fast-paced, suspenseful read that will keep you and your friends talking.
Torre’s novel is a dark version of the Real Housewives of Silicon Valley. The two protagonists, Neena Ryder and Cat Winthorpe take turns narrating the novel, and it is their passive-aggressive turned aggressive feud that provides the main conflict. Our PMC Book Club members had lots of thoughts and conflicting feelings on the plot, but even more so about the characters!
Through the alternating narration, Torre is able to communicate the theme of perception being one’s reality and how that can lead to ill-fated consequences. You’ll find yourself questioning who is really telling the truth…and maybe no one is.
Overall, New York Times best-selling author Torre provides an entertaining and fast-past read which is perfect for those long weekend and vacation vibes.
