Rebekah Yoder loves a good mystery―that is, until she becomes a part of one.
Rebekah Yoder has always been curious . . . or nosy depending on whom you ask. When a Yankee stranger moves into the house next door, she’s fascinated. Who is this strange old man who never waves or smiles? When Bekah sees him digging holes in his back yard, she’s sure there is a case to be solved.
Unfortunately, when her cousin blabs the story to the whole school, rumors fly. Is he hiding something? Treasure? Victims? And worst of all, annoying Caleb Mullet is now determined to solve the mystery with her. What they don’t realize is there’s not just secrecy lurking next door―there’s danger. Will Bekah take her curiosity too far?
Readers will love journeying with Bekah Yoder as they learn the danger of gossip, the importance of prayer, and the real story of The Secrets Beneath.

Just can't agree ... this is a waste of time
By Mary G
The Secrets Beneath is just not a very good read ... for tweens/teens (the supposed market) or for adults. The basic premise of the story is that a 13yo who loves reading Nancy Drew books (altho that particular character trait is only mentioned a few times in the beginning of the book) and is overly curious gets into serious trouble with her inquisitiveness. Bekah Yoder, a modern-day Amish girl, lives in the fictional town of Middlefield, OH. The Ohio Amish have slightly different ways than Pennsylvania Amish (differences are described by the author) but this doesn't really come into the plot. Bekah is from a small family who live in a town that mixes "yankees" with "Amish". The story gets dark and mysterious when Bekah notices strange "goings-on" next door and decides to find out what is happening. Her curiousity almsot literally gets her killed ... a situation that is a bit too forboding and scary in this day and age.
I didn't like this book: the Amish connection seemed like just a marketing ploy (seems "Amish" is really in this year) and was an unnecessary part of the plot; the characters didn't ring true ... especially the budding romance with the proverbial "boy next door"; the sub-plot of the cousin coming to stay seemed like trying to make the Amish just like Americans with broken marriages/runaway moms/family troubles -- again, a bit too trite. Finally, I'm not sure exactly who the author is writing to: the book implies it's for tweens/teens but the writing tone seems more adult.
I'm thinking the author, Kathleen Fuller, should stick with writing books for adults and avoid the tween/teen market. I can't believe this is the second book in a planned series! Who is buying it? I can't recommend this one (other than it's a clean, Christian book for tweens/teens/adults so it's better than some books for these age groups).

Disclaimer: this book was sent to me as part of the blogger review program at Thomas Nelson. The only requirement was for me to read the book and post an honest review ... this is my honest "take" on the book, The Secrets Beneath.

A nicely written book, doesn't talk down to its YA audience
By Jeff Wignall
There are many things I like about this book and a few things I wish were a little different or that were added to it, but overall it's a very nicely written book. I found the writing to be very intelligent and to have a good pace. The writer does a very good job of keeping the story moving and of keeping the descriptions short, but providing enough information so that you certainly get a feel for the settings.
I was a bit put off at first by the fact that the perspective/protagonist seems to shift quite often. It's a bit confusing at first and I'm not sure a younger reader would pick up on this as being a writer's tool. It's really fine once you understand what she's doing, I don't mean it to be a huge criticism, but I'm a writer and I was kind of surprised that she used such an uncommon device. I think the narrative would be just as strong (probably stronger) from one perspective.
Also, the author provides an Amish glossary up front and then uses those words throughout the book, yet she italicizes them (an editorial choice probably, not necessarily that of the author) and I find it kind of redundant: YA readers are smart enough to know that if they don't recognize a particular word, it's probably in that pre-story glossary. I think it makes the stories go bump a bit when you keep seeing words in italics.
I wouldn't mind if more things about the depth of the Amish religion/philosophy/history were woven into the narrative--or perhaps a preamble that explains things in more detail. On the other hand, the author is not hammering the Amish religion too heavily and that's a good thing. It is what it is, a spiritual setting, and that's all it needs to be for these books.
I won't rehash the plot here but this is a mystery ala Nancy Drew and while it's not nail-biting drama by any means, the stories are pretty interesting and I think kids (boys and girls) will like them.
Most importantly though, as I said at the top, the books are well written in terms of dialog, descriptions and pace. It's a very intelligently written book, I think, and the author obviously acknowledges the readers' intelligence. Yes, there are a few boy/girl relationship cliches (and how I loathe cliches), but they're not that distracting: boy teases girl, girl falls in the pond, boy laughs at her. Fine, I guess, but they seem staged a bit. So many YA books are utter garbage because of their condescending tone, this one is not. I would say that a book like Holesis quite a bit more dramatic (and a great read) but I think that is aimed at a different type of audience (male and older).
I think girls looking for a series to keep them busy reading in bed on winter nights would love this series.

Nice mystery for young readers
By drebbles
Thirteen year old Bekah Yoder loves to read, especially Nancy Drew mysteries. She is a naturally curious person (some would say nosy) and can't help wondering about some things that are happening. Like why has her cousin Amanda come to live with Bekah's family instead of her own family? What is her new next-door neighbor burying in his yard? Who is the scary looking man who has also been hanging around next door? Why is Caleb Mullet teasing her all the time? Bekah can't help poking her nose into places it doesn't belong but she better be careful or her curiosity will leave her into danger.
"The Secrets Beneath" is a nice mystery aimed at readers aged 8 to 12. While Bekah likes to read Nancy Drew mysteries, this book and the one before it (A summer Secret) reminded me more of the Trixie Belden series. Bekah is closer to Trixie's age and like Trixie she is curious - a curiosity that often gets her into trouble with her parents (and sometimes real danger). She is not deliberately naughty, just naturally curious. She is a typical 13-year-old navigating the minefield of friendship and boys. Amanda is a good character - upset over problems at home (author Kathleen Fuller takes her time revealing what those problems are so the reader also has a mystery to solve) and acting out a bit in the hope of getting sent home. Since it is set in the Amish community, religion plays a major part in the book, but the book is never preachy or trying to convert anyone ((in fact, Amanda has some issues with prayer). The mystery is nicely done with some thrilling and scary moments (maybe a bit too scary for readers younger than eight). The Bekah/Caleb moments are cute and will probably make young girls sigh (and again reminded me again of the Trixie Belden books, especially the Trixie Belden/Jim Frayne relationship).
"The Secrets Beneath" is a nice mystery for young readers.
