I loved the blurb, I loved the beginning of the story. The book started with a shocker - a suicide. Julia was found hanging from the porch, and her mother Claire was devastated. What caused a happy 20 year old, studying journalism, to take such a drastic step? The author Nicole Trope started the story … Continue reading Book Review - My Daughter’s Secret by Nicole Trope #BookBlogger #AmReading
