Secrets to Happiness by Sarah Dunn

"Secrets to Happiness" by Sarah Dunn .

So I picked up this book because I saw that someone was reading it on viagarpelaleitura and the title intrigued me. Everyone wants to be happy; the world would actually be a better place if more of us were happy. So I picked up the book and began reading, ready to take notes on these secrets of happiness. The book reads kind of like a sitcom, with the cheating wife who hooks up her best-friend, Molly, with her own ex-lover, only to find that she is still in love with this 'ex-lover' and then quickly snatches him back. But I wasn't reading the novel for the corrupted love affairs and doomed marriages, I was reading the novel for Molly's secrets to happiness. After everything that happened to Molly...her divorc, her friend hooking her up with a new beau only to take him back when things were getting good, etc...I was curious to see how she would come to see the light at the end of the tunnel again. I enjoyed Molly's journey at finding happiness, her struggle with the people who were not true to themselves around her and their dishonesty with each other, and ultimately her search for a certain spirituality and religion that would help her find meaning in her life, that would help her find hope, and how events like adopting a dog from a shelter can change your outlook on life and on people in general. This book was a very quick read, and I found its plot to be quick, simple and to the point at first, but the themes in the book develop deeper as the characters in this book are ultimately all looking for their own paths to happiness. Although it is a quick and short read, the book does call on the reader to make deeper reflections and I found it to be enjoyable.
