A beautiful and important story By Z. de Ruiter The protagonist is a teenager by the name of Lauren, who is starting at a new school after something bad has happened at her previous one. What exactly this is and whether she was the victim or cause of the reason both she and her sister were forced to make a new start is not revealed until the end of the novel and this cloud of mystery, which hangs over her past, added an intriguing element to what was already a hugely compelling book.From the opening pages, I felt invested in Lauren's story and rooted for her to succeed at making a fresh start at her new school. Simon Packham created an incredibly likeable character with her and one that teenagers nowadays undoubtedly can relate to; after all who hasn't ever tried to just blend in and not be noticed by their peers? Of course in Lauren's case there is a far more complicated reason for the way she acts, but regardless of the reason for the way she positions herself she's a great representative of today's complicated teenager.There was nothing I didn't love about the way this novel was build up; the mysterious flashbacks, the fact that Lauren's past was only ever alluded to, and the slow tension that build throughout up to its explosive conclusion, but I particularly loved her tentative friendship with Harry, which was such an incredibly moving and realistic storyline strand. The fact that she recognised him from her old life and the secrets she was trying to distance herself from added a touch of danger and excitement to them spending time together – after all, he could start remembering at any time and then her fresh start would've been for nothing.And when it was finally revealed what had happened to Lauren that made it so important for her to have that new beginning and hide her past it was such a heartbreaking revelation that I couldn't help but let the tears flow while I was reading this on the train into work. It made total sense within the context of the story but from the subtle hints sprinkled throughout it was an explanation I hadn't seen coming at all. I did have my suspicions about some other things, but I wasn't even close. Well played, Simon Packham, well played.I really can't say any more about the contents of Only We Know because the less you know the more exciting and rewarding your journey through Lauren's life will be. Just know that this is a beautiful and important story and one that every young adult and not-so-young adult should read.
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Beautiful and thoroughly engrossing! By ADITI SAHA “The best way of keeping a secret is to pretend there isn't one.”----Margaret Atwood, a Canadian authorSimon Packham, an English YA author, pens his latest YA book, Only We Know, that traces the story of a young teenage girl named Lauren, who moves to a new town with her parents and her younger sister, the only slight problem is that the whole family is trying to run as well as hide away from Lauren's little secret, so they all have to maintain a very low profile to not to attract any undue attention towards themselves. What is that secret?Synopsis:What is the secret of Lauren's past?Lauren's family have moved house very suddenly, and she and her sister Tilda have to go to a new school. Lauren's determined to reinvent herself, but she's panic-stricken when she sees Harry, who she knew a few years ago. Luckily Harry doesn't recognise her, and she knows she has to make sure it stays like that.Lauren, unlike Tilda, settles in well. She makes friends, is helping to organise the school fashion show, and has boys asking her out. But just as her life finally seems to be looking up she starts receiving macabre packages. When she gets a message: 'Isn't it time your new friends knew all about you?' she has to admit that someone knows her secret. But who - and what should she do?Lauren and her family moves in to a new town. Lauren and her family are actually running away from Lauren's secrets and is trying hard to keep it hidden from the new towns folks. Lauren settles in quite easily in her new school, whereas Tilda faces difficulty to accept her new school. Gradually Lauren becomes more accustomed to new new life and soon she meets a boy from her past which she is trying to bury it. And eventually when this perfect boy becomes a part of her love life, Lauren started to get some presents marking all the evil clues about her dirty little secret. Lauren is devastated and is on the verge of breaking down, and the revelation nearly kills her. Will Lauren be able to handle it? What is the secret that she is trying to bury it?The author's writing style is fantastic and since the whole book revolves around an untold secret, so right from the very begining, the story kept me engrossed till the very end to find out Lauren's secret. And trust me, your guessing won't work here, since the secret leaves my mouth agape with the gravity of it's darkness. And I really loved it how the author no remark about it all through the story.The prose is evocative and with an articulate and catchy and easy to comprehend with narrative style, the book falls in the category of must-read YA lists for this summer. The pace is really fast since it made me anticipate with lots of guesses to find out the secret that the author kept tightly wrapped under layers of confusion and fear.The characters sounds quite realistic enough to believe in them, especially the main character, Lauren, who acts brave on the outside but is actually a scared little kitten on the inside. Tilda sounds like a no-nonsense sister and this is one character with whom I can't relate much with, who annoys me with her don't care attitude towards her elder sister's fears. Lauren's parents are drawn with lots of realism and their demeanor is similar to any 15 year old daughter's parents, worried all the freaking time and nosy at all the times. Harry is another character who made me fall for him mainly because the way he treated Lauren with lots of respect, love and concern.There is also a lot of chemistry between Harry and Lauren, which is really sweet to read about and the author have painted those scenes with lots of compassion and cuteness. Lauren's demeanor towards her fear of her secret is vividly portrayed in this story, I mean I too have reacted in the similar way. The climax is really justified as I was constantly feeling that the mystery should better be good as the author kept me hanging in the loop till the end of last chapter and the mystery really satisfied me and according to me, it is worth the wait.Overall, this is an interesting story written poignantly that kept me engrossed till the very last page.Verdict: A must-read YA for the summers.
