Synopsis:

Buried Secrets, protected lies, and cunning deception all play a pivotal role in Sahar Abdulaziz’s new Contemporary Fiction, Secrets That Find Us.

Seventeen years ago Terri Ann Stone began serving a life sentence, charged with the double homicide of her mother and stepfather. Up to now, Terri’s anger, hate, and relentless commitment to hiding the truth kept her alive behind bars. However, the bitterness that once fueled Terri's center begins to wane. Her pledge to secrecy dissolves. With no prospect of ever being set free, she reveals the entire ugly truth to the single person left in the world who still matters to her.

Riddled with intrigue and the ability to destroy, can the power of Terri’s secrets live on, or will disclosure at long last uncover the answers so desperately desired?

My Review:

What a dark read. Sahar Abdulaziz's Secrets That Find Us is sure not for the sensitive heart.

I've been wanting to check out Sahar Abdulaziz for a long time, and Secrets That Find Us caught my eye. Purchased it on my Kindle and forgot about it for a while before eventually picking it up after a long time.

It took me almost a month to finish; I kept putting it down. I'm glad I finally finished it!

Unfortunately, I did not enjoy it as much as I thought I would. I did not care for any of the characters (I hated Terri Ann Stone! She was so stupid!). Every time a chapter ended, I would gladly put it down.

If it weren't for all these juicy secrets, I would've stopped reading it, but curiosity kept me going as I wanted to know Terri's big secret. There were a lot of surprising twists. The only good thing I can say about it is that Sahar Abdulaziz has a way of making you turn the page.

Overall, it was a disturbing, disgusting story. Also, I didn't get the ending.
