books 2009: The Safe-Keeper's Secret, by Sharon Shinn

[supercheesegirl]

This was delightful! I guess I'd classify it as YA fantasy? I really enjoyed the premise--that there are some people with an ability, and a responsibility and role in society, for keeping secrets, for listening and keeping silent and knowing when the truth should be told. I loved how nicely everything wrapped up in the end, how when the secrets came out it was the right time and everything fit together. I liked the characters and the story and the way the mysteries were solved.

Thanks to everyone who's recommended Shinn to me. I really liked this book. What should I read of hers next?
