A review by septemberr
100 Days of Sunlight by Abbie Emmons
4.0
A sweet story and an easy read. Always glad for the representation of characters with disabilities. I also liked how the author included religious diversity without making any specific point about religion. It was just there as part of some characters lives.
Emmons did a great job with all the side characters. The only exception being Weston's dad who seemed to be there only to say encouraging things while explicitly calling Weston "son." The story isn't about the dad-son relationship so it didn't matter much, but it irked me nonetheless. We got so much interesting information about his mom and almost nothing about his dad. I kept forgetting that his mom was not a single mom.
There a few other very minor things that I would have changed but, overall, I recommend this book. It's a fun read and a straight-forward YA novel with lots of cute moments.
