Et cetera : What We're Reading: The Light We Lost

If you are in the habit of checking Goodreads before checking out your books, then this one will show mixed reviews.

'The Light We Lost' by Jill Santopolo starts the story where Lucy and Gabe meet in college on the day of September 11, 2001. They have an instant connection on that day and feel the need to do something that matters to the world.

The story continues with Lucy narrating her life, her love for Gabe, their journey together and apart. But when you have dreams of doing something that matters, years apart, and continents away, will love last?

Even with the mixed reviews, I enjoyed this book and was emotionally invested. I am looking forward to reading the second book, 'The Love We Found.'
