The style of book wasn't really my thing and I'm not sure I followed the leaps the main character made: her father disappears and she immediately thinks that something bad happened to him? You have to do a great job of selling that and unforatunately, that wasn't the case. But I do think we need more young adult books about grieving and this one fit that category.

I loved this! It wasn’t what I expected, but in the best of ways. It’s like I found a book I didn’t know I needed.

This was a quick read with some good themes but it wasn't the "thriller" that I was expecting. Good characters and some mystery elements but overall just wasn't exactly what I expected. Thank you netgalley for this arc in exchange for my honest opinion.

4-5 stars, while this book is not at all what I was expecting, wouldn't really consider it a thriller so much, it was well written, intriguing, and emotionally charged. The characters were done with a fine precision and it really brought many emotions out of me throughout. I think that there were mysterious angles throughout, but this book is much more of an emotional roller coaster, which takes you through a tumultuous course of many tough subjects. Definitely written in a way that will choke your emotions out of you, but keep you reading until the end. Recommend to those who like the books that really know how to make you gasp, cry, cry, cry, and many other things!
Will make sure to buzz up on all the different platforms!

This book gave me more than I signed up for in the best way. Based on the description, I thought I was going to read a typical YA thriller, but instead got a book that does a wonderful job covering tough topics like abuse, grief and sexuality. Grief is something that everyone eventually experiences, and I feel like it's important to have open discussions about it. I appreciate that Savannah Brown gave people an outlet to talk about these topics, while using her book as a tool to spur those conversations.

Thank you to NetGalley, Savannah Brown and Sourcebooks Fire for a copy of The Truth About Keeping Secrets in exchange for my honest review.

This book has a ton of potential, but it was just not the one for me. I wasn't a huge fan of the pacing, but I think that it is definitely going to have it's lot of fans to those who like this vibe when it comes to their mystery/thriller ya books! I think that people should definitely give this one a shot, because I really do see a ton of people liking it--unfortunately, it just wasn't for me!

A book about grief, loss, love and finding yourself again. I enjoyed this book. I came for a thriller book but only the ending half ended up showing those elements. However, I found myself not really carrying very much for that part. The twists were easy to guess, along with its villain. What made me stay and read this book in one sitting were the characters. I found myself emotional at how Sydney handled her grief. It was one long emotional journey for her, and reading how she struggled and slowly healed was a beautiful thing to read.

Mystery, grief, mental illness, LGBTQ: that is a lot happening in one book. However, all these elements come together to a pretty satisfying novel about a young teen dealing with the loss of her father. The characters were sympathetic, the mystery kept me guessing. I didn't love the big reveal, but the ending was pretty satisfying.

An enjoyable and easy to read book with some serious messages. Thanks to the publisher and netgalley for an ARC egalley.

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Sourcebooks for the ARC.

Such a good book with real characters. Its so much more than just a thriller. Its emotion and deals with so much grief.

This book has been on my radar for a while, but I'm not 100% sure how I felt about it. I think I wanted a little bit more of a thriller than what it ended up being. That being said, I actually really enjoyed how realistic this book seemed about death and abusive relationships for teenagers. While it's not 100% realistic, I do think it tackles some pretty real elements head on. The characters were enjoyable - though I definitely wanted more Leo.

A good addition to the YA thriller category. Some slow parts, but authentic characters, a good love story, and a nice twist.

A powerful novel with a unique look at grief and death as well as love and friendship. The book reads like a thriller but is equally a YA novel about loss. Many dark themes but overall, hopeful.

An amazing, thrilling and exciting book that takes you on a roller coaster ride and does not let up until the very end. When I thought I knew where it would go, I was proven wrong constantly. Beautifully written and absolutely captivating, it is a raw and phenomenal book
