Book Review: The Rise of Light by Olivia Hawker

Check out The Rise of Light

It’s not often I find a book that moved me the way this one does. Hawker’s ability to delve into the mind of characters I otherwise may have found despicable or pathetic is awe-inducing.

I love stories that throw out the concept of black and white, good and evil, and draw us instead into a world of greys by showing the complexities of human thought, feeling and motivation. This is definitely one of those books.

It reminded me of a painting: A work of art you can sit back and contemplate as you appreciate its beauty and complexity.
