About the Book:
Her job is to keep their secrets safe. A secluded Retreat Center full of preternatural clientele. A talking crow who thinks she knows everything. A new boy in town asking a lot of nosy questions. Sound like a lot to handle? Not for fifteen-year-old Macy Steward, who lives at the Center and helps her parents run the highly unusual retreats. For Macy, this is simply normal routine. And it’s all going exactly as expected, that is until the guests become dangerously unpredictable, the talking crow goes suspiciously missing, and the new boy turns out to be so much more than he first appeared. “Here comes trouble.” That’s the last thing the crow says before disappearing. Even though she doesn’t scare easily, Macy has to admit the crow was right. Because soon enough, she finds herself trying to keep a lot more things safe than just secrets…
My Review:
Relatively short and available on kindle, this is a quick fun YA Science Fiction lite story.
Science Fiction can be a genre that people steer away from (including me) because it can often be very technical in nature and difficult to understand at times. The Safekeeper was just the opposite, easy to understand, written for the average reader and so easy to read!
I loved the author’s writing style. It felt like a contemporary fiction read that just happened to have some science fiction subject matter added in. It was a fun concept, a mystery like unfolding of information and some really fun characters! Very enjoyable!
I am eager to see what this author will publish next.
