Book Review: Can You Keep a Secret? by Sophie Kinsella

5.0 out of 5 stars Very funny, ROTFL funny

I am not normally a fan of romantic comedy but this had the perfect touch. You meet the man of your dreams on a plane, and he turns out to be your new boss when you are back at work on Monday morning.

Only instead of telling a pack of lies to impress the total stranger, she blurts out the whole truth about everything and everyone in her life.

There are the white lies we tell, and things we don’t say at all, to avoid hurting the people we care about, and then there are huge whoppers. Emma falls into the first category. Jack is so secretive she can’t get him to talk at all.

When he finally does, he tells all about her, because he loves her. But with the most shocking results.

The dramatic tension and romantic tension in the book is far better than any of her Shopaholic books. And I find Emma much more charming. The cast of characters who all get their comeuppance in one way or the other are priceless. One thing is for sure, you will never look at lawyers or little white lies the same way again, let alone thong underwear!

I loved Jack-he actually had personality compare with Luke in her other books. Fast paced and extremely funny! Enjoy!
