What readers are saying about Maisie’s Secret
“This is the second book of short stories I have read by the author and I have to say I quickly devoured them.
The book itself isn’t long as it is made up of ten short stories and it is the perfect book for anyone who is short on time or loves to dip in and out of a book as you could easily read each story over a tea or coffee break.
It’s a collection that is made up of psychological thrillers as well as contemporary fiction of which I read and enjoy lots of books in both genres. I thought Maisie’s Secret was a great story to kick the book off as it ensured it grabbed my attention. My favourite though had to be A Husband For All Seasons as I am a true romantic at heart and that one definitely pulled on my heart strings.
This is a great book to have either on your bedside table or to carry around with you as you will definitely want to keep reading to get to the end of each story before putting it down. As I’ve already said, if you love short stories or for readers who are short on time but love to be whisked off into the world of fiction, then I highly recommend this book. It’s an entertaining read that will have you hooked from beginning to end.” - Amazon Reviewer
"I don’t normally read short stories but with Helene Fermont at the helm, I jumped at the chance to read this book. A collection of psychological thriller and contemporary fiction, each story really packs a punch. The first, Maisie’s Secret, was the perfect way to kick things off. It’s sinister, jaw dropping and sets off the tone for the rest of the book perfectly. It was my favourite out of the bunch.
Helene Fermont weaves her magic as she brings each story to life. Her writing is engaging and if life did not rudely get in the way, I would have finished this book in one setting. Fun, captivating and highly entertaining, Maisie’s Secret is a quick easy read and a must for fans of short stories." - Marnie, Once Upon a Time Book reviews
"This is an intriguing collection that is a real mixed bag of treats. The first story, Maisie's Secret is wonderfully creepy and her encounter is a challenging one. This kicks off the rest of the stories superbly. These are a real mix of themes, but for me focussed most on relationships- meet cutes, chance encounters, affairs, suspicions, heartbreak and so much more. My favourite stories were A Husband For All Seasons, In Hindsight and Deception.
I personally found short stories to be the perfect way to get back into reading if you are in a reading slump. These are perfectly bitesize that could easily be gobbled up in chunks, or read as a whole in one sitting.." - Goodreads Reviewer
"This is a collection of 10 short stories, each with a psychological suspense element that really gets the reader thinking and pulls you into the stories from the very beginning.
I wasn’t sure at first how I would feel about short stories, since I normally prefer full-length books, but I’ve read this author before and enjoyed her work so I have it a shot and Wow! I was not disappointed! She really is able to put together great characters and settings in each short interlude that really grip you and make you feel invested in each story.
I think each was the perfect length to keep you interested, but not overdo it as far as short stories go. They lasted long enough to keep your interest and set up the dilemmas and deceptions that characterize each story, but didn’t drag on.
I would definitely recommend this anthology to people looking for something different to add to their reading collection and I look forward to what is coming next from this author!" - (e) Book Nerd
