A review by littletaiko
A Sudden Light by Garth Stein

3.0

A sort of coming of age story told by Trevor as he's looking back at the summer he was 14 and the events that changed his life. It involves family secrets and ghosts. Overall, I liked the book though it felt a bit sluggish in the middle. It was also hard to get past a certain ick factor that permeates through the book. Also, the two female characters were the weakest link. Still I couldn't help but be intrigued by the history of the area and I do love ghosts who come back to help settle things.
