review 1: At first, I got attracted by the title of this book. Secret keeper, what kind of person is that? Being a secret keeper is not easy, and sometimes not willing to be a secret keeper. I like this book because I am somehow similar to the protagonist, Asha, not our backgrounds, but that way that we keep our secrets. Asha loves to keep her secrets in her journal books, and I like to keep my secrets in a form of daily journals. Sometimes, secret keepers expect other people to understand them, but struggling with not expecting other people to know their secrets. In this book, Asha’s secrets had alienated her relationship with her mother once. Will keeping secrets really alienate the relationship between people? Then what is the purpose for keeping the secrets if it causes prob... morelems?
