What Light by Jay Asher
3.0
I'm not going to lie. I definitely began this book with high expectations. 13 Reasons Why was a stand-out young adult book and really left a lasting impact on me (it's been four years since I've read it and I still recommend it to people).
I also enjoyed The Future of Us by Asher, so needless to say, I was expecting intense love with this book. Wellllllll, I was right and wrong. Yes, there was very intense love but it was not between me and this book.
What Light is a typical, basic young adult book. I don't feel it adds anything outstanding to the genre and, rather, has a paint by numbers feel to the it.
It's a light read where you know what you're getting. It's OK for what it is. There's nothing outwardly negative or anything regarding the book. I just think it's neutral for me when it comes to recommending it.
