![]() ![]() When the intervals between memorable books are stretching to the point where you feel it's going to be unbearable, you start to scrutinize yourself. I'm so bloody grateful for this outstanding read because I was standing too many times in the absence of light in terms of the quality of books I had to struggle through this year. In The Absence of Light is the kind of book I inhale and devour in a heartbeat. However, her greatest gift is to evoke a huge amount of emotion from me. Besides, the author has a wonderful talent of making a flawed, not law-abiding character very lovable and encouraged me to believe in redemption for Grant. It really gave the storyline a compelling forward momentum. The narrative in this book is excellent and powerful. I'm usually not fond of plenty of narrative but I gotta tip my hat. There's a little something about it that cut through my heart and made me bleed repeatedly. Wilder's voice and writing are terribly beautiful. I don't know but I was crying for no apparent reason. ![]() I can't remember the last time a story made me tear up so many times. In The Absence of Light wrecked me but only in the most positive way. One word that would sum this book up is… awesome. ![]() Readers who know me are aware that this means something.Įven days after I finished this story, I'm still reeling in the aftermath of one of the best reading experiences I've had this year. My second five-star rating of the year goes to In The Absence of Light by Adrienne Wilder. ![]()
