Keeping You a Secret is a young adult novel by Julie Anne Peters. It was first published in hardback in 2003, and later in paperback in 2005. The novel is about Holland, a 17-year-old girl, discovering her sexuality and what it is like to experience homophobia. What starts out as a confusing "girl crush" becomes a discovery of Holland's true feelings and coping with the concept of attraction to a member of her own sex. Other characters in the novel discover her crush and employ various means of physical and emotional abuse and violence, displaying strong homophobic behaviors. Keeping You a Secret was a finalist for the 2004 Lambda Literary Award for Children's and Young Adult Literature and Stonewall Book Award. উৎস: Wikipedia (en)
