The Truth-Teller's Tale by Sharon Shinn

A feel-good book suitable for teens and adults. I wanted a nice, easy read. What with the pandemic and quarantine, I didn’t want a huge mystery or messy problems. This book was perfect. The writing is simply beautiful, I highlighted multiple passages. When my daughter is old enough, I hope she will read this with me.

Two innkeepers daughters, Eleda and Adele, are mirror twins. They each are very special: Eleda is a truth-teller and Adele is a secret keeper. Townspeople occasionally mix them up to sometimes humorous or disastrous results. The girls were a joy to read about and you watch them grow into young women, learning valuable lessons along the way. They have a best friend, Roelynn, who is the daughter of a wealthy merchant. Roelynn falls in love quickly and often, resisting any attempts her father makes to marry her to the Prince. When a dancing master and his apprentice stay at the inn, romance buds and lies and truths are revealed.

Side note: This is a stand alone novel, but I plan to read book one next. Yes, I went out of order.
