What Light

This was like a fanfic author's first attempt at an original novel. What I mean to say is that it had the heart and soul of a really good story, I laughed at parts and gushed my heart out at others, but this was missing a lot of the mechanics. I found the time skips spent no time establishing themselves, the author focused on minute descriptors, and a lot of the thoughts and opinions of the characters were bluntly stated through the main character's narration. A lot of the plot points were also resolved the same way: with Sierra having one more argument with the other characters till they relented. Two and a calf out of five cows. Maybe three. I'm undecided. I tend to be harsh when it comes to technical critiques. Not that I have any right to, as editing is my Achilles heel, but you know xD
