It
doesn't happen often, but this was definitely one of those times when
I knew within the first few pages that the author's style was not a
match for me. I flipped to the middle, confirming that, and then had
to close the book. So, I cannot tell you anything regarding details,
but I can let you know what created the mismatch. The author's
writing reads a bit like a rambling speaker. Transitions are not
smooth. The dialogue is too folksy for my taste. I am sure there are
readers who would like this style, referring to it as down-home, and
saying it reminds them of Great Aunt Lucille. However, with so many
books available, I chose to abandon this one.
I
do appreciate Thomas Dunne Books providing me with a copy of Light
Changes Everything via
NetGalley. Opinions here are strictly my own.
