Two Can Keep a Secret is just a twisty and delicious as One of Us Is Lying. I loved Ellery and the quaint little town she moves to. Well, if quaint includes a theme park formerly known as Murderland.
There's personal issues against the murder mystery backdrop, such as a mom in rehab, first love, and the teenage struggle of figuring out who you want to be. Ellery is obsessed with true crime and wants to solve the mystery of the missing girls in Echo Ridge, especially when the first girl to go missing was her aunt. Just as the synopsis promises, there's plenty of shocking secrets woven through the novel and I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. This mystery is extremely twisty and juicy. Everyone is a suspect and you're not sure if you can trust anyone.
The reveal, however, was a little lackluster. I'm not sure what I wanted to be the scenario, but the one I was given I didn't like. It's such a shame because everything up to that point was perfect. I preferred the reveal of One of Us Is Lying, but I still loved all the mystery and buildup of this one.

I came to this book excited (since I read One Of Us Is Lying) This book went over my expectation. I love the shocking ending and all the twist and turns in the middle. If you love mystery novels I recommend that you read this book.

This book is one of the best mystery/murder books I've read. Mcmanus also has another book similar to this, and I also read and admire the book. To make a long story short, NOT a spoiler, please read this book, and her other book, 'One of us is Lying'.

Great mystery for all ages. Suspenseful plot twists with logical conclusions, unconfusing side stories to keep you entertained that come together satsifyingly. Excellent and likable main characters. Long enough to keep you guessing-all the makings of a good mystery.
My only critque would be the quickness of the ending and the ultimate carelessness of the murderer. Believable but not as good as it couldve been written. Everything leading up to it including the reveal and final unknown elements made sense and I DID appreciate being surprided. Would totally read another book of hers. I liked the two different characters altnernating narration because it kept my adhd head focused. The 13 year old i babysit loved it as well which is how i discovered it.

*Thanks to NetGalley for the eARC of this title!*
Seventeen year old twins Ellery and Ezra are spending their senior year of high school with their grandmother in tiny Echo Ridge, while their mother gives rehab one more shot. They have never been there before; their mother left after her own twin sister was murdered as a teenager. This wasn't even the only murder in the town - beautiful homecoming queen Lacey was killed just a few years before Ellery and Ezra show up. Ellery, a true crime buff, is hoping she can find some clues to unravel both of those cases during her stay.
Of course, the more she looks, the more secrets come to light - and the more bad things start happening. From a hit and run, to open threats on the homecoming court, to a disappearance, things in Echo Falls just can't stay in the past.
*My Notes* - I really love Karen M. McManus's writing style, and I love that the twists and turns are both believable and unpredictable. I can't wait for her next novel!

This book was really intense to read. Every page there was something new developing in the plot and I never knew how powerful secrets are until reading this book. Keeping secrets is a good quality to have but this book took it one step further in letting it be the key to your survival in the town of Echo-Ridge. Echo-Ridge is a very ironic name for a town where keeping secrets is the key to happiness. Watching Ellery go through Echo-Ridge, discovering unfortunate events and disappearances kept my eyes glued to the page, never wanting to stop reading.
That is why we give this book 5 stars.

I was so excited to read this book when I first heard about it. It didn’t disappoint!
I couldn’t put this book down. It was such a page-turner! There were so many pieces of the puzzle that kept popping up. I figured out who did it halfway through the story, when I heard one of the clues. I was still excited to read the ending.
The last 50 pages or so were so fast paced. I kept holding my breath just waiting to see what would happen next. The final lines of the story gave me chills!
I loved this book! I can’t wait to read everything Karen M. McManus writes in the future!
I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

This book gives chills with killer one liners. Karen McManus is an amazing author. She knows exactly what will make the reader twitch, think, and shake for a long long time. That last line... I’m still thinking about it.
