Two Can Keep a Secret by Karen M. McManus
3.0

Lacking depth, but good for a quick read.

The story hops a little when it transitions from one character to another, so I feel that important details are overlooked or misplaced. I did however enjoy the general plot, I just felt that the characters could have been worked on a little bit more. I feel that they had great outlines, but needed more depth, something to really connect the reader to the characters.

I do enjoy a good 'who dunnit' story line, I just felt that I'd been more invested if the characters motives had been a little better fleshed out, and had a little more substance. Something for the reader to mull over, and be really wrapped up in the mystery solving.
