Review: A Grown Up Peyton
Rating: 5 out of 5

Every time I finish one of the Secret Keeper series I find myself in disbelief that I've so quickly completed yet another of Brea Brown's wonderful books and this latest is no exception. I've already written glowingly about the realistic characters, how I think about them long after I've finished each book, and how I appreciate that Ms. Brown does not create stereotypes in her portrayals of these people of deep faith. What's new for me in The Secret Keeper Let's Go is Peyton's growth as a person of faith, a wife, friend and mother. She's no longer the off-kilter young single we met in the first book, but has matured into a thoughtful, though still imperfect grown up woman. She has her moments to be sure, especially when her two best friends seem not to quite be in her corner any more, but she comes through the experience wiser and closer than ever to these women who mean so much to her. Thanks again, Brea, for creating characters I want to spend more time getting to know!
