In walks old-fashioned old-money suitor Aubrey Hanna, here to whisk seventeen year old Mary Pearl off her feet with a forbidden kiss and hasty engagement. With the promise of high society outings and a rich estate, Aubrey's lustful courtship quickly creates petty tension among the three generations of Prine women. As autumn approaches all too quickly, Mary Pearl's Wheaton College acceptance counters quick marriage preparations. Days of travel by horse and by train carry her deep into a sophisticated new world of Northern girls' schooling. Seeking friendship but finding foes, Mary Pearl not only learns how to write, read, and draw, but also how to act, dress, and be a woman. Light Changes Everything is the story of a resilient young feminist a century ahead of her time. Full of gumption and spirit, Mary Pearl's evocative coming of age is destined to be the next American classic.

It doesn't happen often, but this was definitely one of those times when I knew within the first few pages that the author's style was not a match for me. I flipped to the middle, confirming that, and then had to close the book. So, I cannot tell you anything regarding details, but I can let you know what created the mismatch. The author's writing reads a bit like a rambling speaker. Transitions are not smooth. The dialogue is too folksy for my taste. I am sure there are readers who would like this style, referring to it as down-home, and saying it reminds them of Great Aunt Lucille. However, with so many books available, I chose to abandon this one.
I do appreciate Thomas Dunne Books providing me with a copy of Light Changes Everything via NetGalley. Opinions here are strictly my own.
