“The Light Through the Leaves” is about a mother finding a way to move through grief and heartbreak, and a daughter learning to build relationships after years of isolation. Both struggle to navigate relationships and mental stability. All of the characters in this book were so relatable, dynamic and unique. I’m typically a slow reader, but I was so engrossed in this story that I finished it in just a few days. I enjoyed it because the characters worked long and hard for their heartwarming ending. The story, characters, relationships, everything was so well thought out by the author. Nothing seemed too convenient, the story was believable and intriguing. It was everything I love in a book.
Three words that describe this book: Heartwarming, relatable, inspiring
You might want to pick this book up if: You appreciate a hard-earned, happy ending.
