Explanation Supposing Books Light on Snow

I found the book in a quaint, but minuscule secondhand bookshop in the middle of nowhere. Since I've read one of the author's books before, I decided to read this one as well. It was such a delight to find in the first place there. It was one of the very few better choices. And I liked the reading experience. A twelve-year-old girl, Nicky, and her widowed dad, Robert, finds a baby in the snow. The Dillon's secluded life out in the New Hampshire's woods are suddenly not so simple anymore. They saved the baby's life; they were responsible; and brave, but suddenly their lives changed without them being in the driver's seat of their destiny. The follow-up events opens up their hidden feelings which they were unable to share with each other, or the outside world, without them turning the key in the lock of their unspoken private worlds themselves. It is a book for young adults, I would say, and a really gentle,fast, enjoyable read, but with a deep enough base to have me staying riveted to the story from the beginning to end. The book addresses the different forms of honesty, grief, happiness, love and choices. The young girl observes the events and is introduced into the world of serious issues, bigger than herself, very fast. A relaxing and feel-good read. The book is also very well written with all the plots coming together perfectly in the end. I would love to read more of the author's books.

Judgment Appertaining To Books Light on Snow
I'm pretty amazed at how many books I've neglected on my TBR. I have no idea when I will read the last book that I pinned in 2015 (I really hope before February!!).Things I loved about this book, Light on Snow:1. THE COVER2. SNOW ON THE COVER3. I LOOOOOOVEEEE SNOW4. How it was written - #AMAZING5. NICKYOKAY, first things first - whoever left an INFANT in the god damn snow is a terrible person. And okay, that's what I first thought when I read the synopsis. BUT SERIOUSLY WHO THE HELL WOULD DO

Recently, in the library I noticed an In Memorium display for Anita Shreve. How sad that this talented author is no longer with us! Some of her novels have been long standing favorites. She writes so well, and in her stories the hook is usually set early! Light on Snow, written in 2004 was a rewarding discovery! The unique tale unfolded as told by an endearing twelve-year-old girl. I find I generally enjoy child narrators. Perhaps it takes a special talent to carry that off. The story involved a

One of my favorite Shreve titles. I loved the teenaged character, and I adore Shreve's writing.

I am glad I didn't base whether to read this book on the reviews here because I think a lot of people didn't "get it," and maybe that's Shreve's failing, but I've observed that, by and large, people don't really understand grief until they experience it first hand, unfortunately. I know that I did not. So I think that people who have experienced the kind of grief that keeps you from getting out of bed will really appreciate this book, and those who have had blissfully uneventful lives will miss

Light on Snow reminded me why I like Anita Shreves writing. The story of Nicky and Robert Dillon, her father, who find a new born baby in the snow while walking in the woods is simply told and caught me from the beginning. It is an easy read yet manages to uncover layers of how people make the decisions they do, as well as how they handle. Nicky and her father have suffered tragedy in their lives with the death of his wife and baby Clara. Nicky grieves for her mother and baby Clara, but in a

It's not a great plot and a little stressful, but an okay winter read if you don't mind genre fiction full of tragedy.

Easy read, the fast moving pace kept me in it til I finished.
