Miley thinks she needs to be perfect. She's blond, skinny, and popular. She starves herself to stay thin, cuts herself when things get to be too much. She is just a lonely girl in her own little world. Declan has known Miley since kindergarten and fancies himself in love with her. He's a good church-going boy who is waiting for marriage to lose his virginity. After a rough start the two get together, and as they say, the rest is history.So, where to begin? The story? The writing? The characters? It was all just bad. The only reason this got two stars was because I can at least appreciate the story and what was being said. Here Comes The Light is overall, just a bad book. I really don't think that anyone looked over the book who knew anything about grammar. There is a definite need for proper punctuation. The characters are boring, really really boring. There is no development in the novel and I don't know if the author gave each much thought and just started writing to see where everything went.I can appreciate the story. Miley is a troubled girl who wants to fit in. It isn't hard for her because her father gives her everything, she's a cheerleader, has a football player boyfriend and is just a popular girl in school. What she lacks though is true companionship. She does find that in Declan though. What I cannot appreciate about the story is the absurdity of the religious aspect of the book. Don't misunderstand me, please, I am a Christian. But as such, I really don't think Jesus, let alone God, would go so far as to tell each of us who we should love and marry one day. That just goes against the free will He gave us.*I received a copy of the book in exchange for a honest review.
