Bright Before Us by Katie Arnold-Ratliff

3.0

The writing was beautiful and different. I appreciated that, but I found myself unable to fully enjoy this book because I disliked the main character, Francis, so much. Greta said two things about Francis that capture who he is throughout the entire story:

1) "You choose the path of least resistance and then you find it boring. You choose the high road then fall off it. You'll keep on doing things you hate so you can keep on feeling robbed walking around bewildered, wondering how you got cheated out of everything you ever wanted."

2)"You took a difficult situation and made it worse."
