Secrets at the Café: A Novel of Suspense about Family and Friendship by Susan Specht Oram – Review by Darla Yocom

Secrets at the Cafe by Susan Specht Oram
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Karina is struggling with her life at the moment. She’s attempting to run her grandmother’s cafe to honor her memory. Keeping up with the day to day responsibilities at the cafe s a lot and she is trying to make her grandmother proud after her unexpected deathbed request. When her unreliable and flaky cousin is more focused on her love life than covering her entire shift, life gets a bit exhausting.

When a mysterious diary is uncovered by a nosey guest and then mysteriously disappears, the mysterious plot thickens.

I really enjoyed how well the author wrote and created the characters in this book. While the characters differ on most fronts, all come across the page as authentic and quite unique.

The dynamic plot has a bit of everything to keep the reader engaged throughout the entire story.

You do not need to be a fan of this genre or author to pick up this book, fall in love with the story and become an instant fan of both.
