| Summary: | "A forbidden love blows open the world of a teenage girl, and alters the trajectory of the rest of her life - from the author of the New York Times bestseller The Chaperone Nora is a spitfire on the cusp of adulthood in 1950s America. She's curious, sharp, and resilient. In quick succession she loses her mother, gains a stepfamily, and moves thousands of miles to newly developing Florida, but she never loses her spark- which is what attracts Leonard, the handsome, older boy at her new high school. Soon, Nora and Leonard are inseparable. Not everyone is comfortable with their tender romance, however, and they are abruptly torn apart. Over a dramatic period of years that include the separations of war and dreams deferred, Nora never forgets what it felt like to love and be loved the way she experienced during her adolescence, and she never stops longing for the person who made her feel whole. Laura Moriarty's first adult novel since her New York Times bestselling The Chaperone, Sunlight Finds You is a richly layered and propulsive story about finding your purpose and not settling for a life that is less than full. With personality and compassion, Moriarty's story is alive with the warmth and charm of her voice, and the charisma of her unforgettable characters"-- Provided by publisher. |
