This Raging Light

Apr 30, 2015

The Bookworm says... Probably. The Raging Light by Estelle Laure was alright. Lucille's whole life is falling apart. Her dad went off the deep end, her mom walked out, and she's stuck taking care of her younger sister. All of that is more than enough on a seventeen year old girl's plate, but add one more wild card- a boy- and you've practically spelt out the recipe for disaster. But does this boy have to be detrimental to Lu's future? 

This book had a pretty good plot set up, and it was generally enjoyable. The ending was perfect. I loved it so much. The writing, however, was not top notch. Some times it just didn't flow as well as I would have liked, but for the most part it was good. The cover is beautiful, by the way. A quick, cute romance.
