100 Days of Sunlight by Abbie Emmons
4.0

I laughed, I cried, and I fell in love with this sweet story

Just when I feel like I'm ready to completely give up YA fiction, a book like 100 Days of Sunlight comes along to remind me of the beauty of the genre. After a car accident, Tessa is left blind, though her doctors think its only temporary. Into her life strolls Weston, a double amputee determined to lift Tessa out of her depression and help her see the joy in life. The catch, he won't let anyone tell Tessa that has has lost his legs. A brilliantly sweet and endearing story that I read in one sitting, bawling my eyes out at times. For the story is really about Weston - not only how he lost his legs and how he put his life back together but also about his eternal optimism and inner fears. A poignant read, this darling love story is perfect for teens and adults.

I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
