A Certain Slant of Light - Laura Whitcomb
This book is, in short, beautiful. I loved every part of it, and the worst thing about it is that it simply isn't long enough. It's a quick read, but wonderfully written.
I loved the main characters, James and Helen and how they interact with a world that is not their own. Whitcomb is incredibly exploring in our contemporary families and modern viewpoints, and as she allows James and Helen to explore, I found myself more attached to them.
It's a really beautiful book; a romance/fantasy and I urge you to read it.

From my grandaughter aged 15
Bought the book for my grandaughter, she has just sent me this message as a review:
I found it relaxing, i could get into it straight away, i wanted to finish it in one sitting, but had to pace myself otherwise i'd regret it later and not
have anything to read. Its written beautifully, Laura Whitcomb has a way with words and a knack for picking out good pieces of poetry that fit the
story line and character perfectly. When i finished the book i wanted to know how it felt to be light, like Helen.

worth a read
Many people who have written reviews of this book recommend it for people who have read the twilight series. I had finished reading the twilight series when i came across this book and thought it might be good. While it was a good read and i would recommend it to anyone searching for a good addition to their book case i would say that it is not as romantic as other books as sometimes the reader gets the feeling that the main characters are overly sexually active. However the contrasting backgrounds of the characters does make the book interesting enough with a couple of good twists throughout the storyline.
