Gusworld: Share A Secret Reviewed

Share A Secret Reviewed looks at the weekly Share A Secret column in Australia's biggest-selling magazine, Woman's Day. We at Gusworld love it, and we hope you will too. We don't give away the plot (that would be unfair and a possible breach of copyright); we just tell you what the headline is and describe the stunning artwork that goes with it.

Woman's Day dated September 9th, 1996

MY SNOOPING HAS RUINED MY MARRIAGE

He knew it was wrong to look, but the diary was enthralling -- until he came to the part about himself

Having previously expressed our opinions on the unlikelihood of Share A Secret having a male protagonist, it comes as no surprise that this week it is buried on page 50. It's also no revelation that the dork in the picture is looking at a red diary. And it's sadly unshocking that the story says he found the diary while watching TV, but in the shot he appears to be trapped in the hallway of a particularly appalling suburban house.

If you're desperate for excitement and sleaze, this week's tale won't do much for you. You may be surprised to discover that the dork in question read the diary and married the chick anyway. You may not. Personally, we're going back to the sealed section in this week's New Weekly to assess the validity of their Rabbit Ratings for public copulation.
