I really loved this book alot. I know Beauford SC so I felt like I could see everything happening because of that. I did fly through reading it because it was really intriguing and felt real. TBH it was real because I had to watch my step father succumb to dementia so the emotions were running high in me while reading. The meaning of family is very high and online ved that aspect so much. The Secrets and Mysteries in Carolina kept me wondering and wanting to know more about what happened in the past. My sister that lives right near Beauford has actually told me that I have to let her borrow this book because she lives there and she thinks it sounds amazing. The author is amazing and I really can't wait to read more by Matt his other books sound just as great as this one. The only problem is which do I choose to read first. I might have to close my eyes or play eenie meenie minny moe.
