The Light We Lost by Jill Santopolo

4.0

The light we lost is honestly one of the most real and raw depictions of relationships and breakup. I loved how relatable the circumstances and situations were. The kind of love story between Lucy and Gabe is one that some of us may have been lucky to have at one point in our lives, but because of the circumstances that we were in that stage of our lives and our fears, dreams and expectations, just couldn't make it work. I wanted Lucy and Gabe to end up together, but so much of what they both want in life is different that it may not have been a good ending anyway. Hard to read after going through a long-term relationship break up.
