100 Days of Sunlight by Abbie Emmons is a rare gem of a book, from the gorgeous cover, all the way through to the final page. I was completely charmed by the story of Tessa and Weston, and loved bearing witness to their beautiful journey.

When sixteen year old Tessa Dickinson is involved in a car accident, she suffers a cerebral contusion which causes her to go blind, but doctors believe that the situation is temporary and predict that it will take up to fourteen weeks for her sight to be restored. Tessa is a poetry blogger and is frustrated by her inability to continue with her writing. When her grandparents place an ad in the local paper hoping to find an assistant for Tessa, the notice is intercepted by Weston Ludovico, who has a unique understanding of what Tessa is going though as he himself is a double amputee. Convincing her grandparents to let him take the job, and on the condition that they do not tell Tessa about his prosthetic legs, Weston aims to bring Tessa to the realization that 'visual beauty is only one form of beauty.' Life is, in fact, a feast for all of the senses.

This is an emotional, heart-rending read that will trigger all of the feels, and will have you falling in love with Tessa and Weston. Beautifully written and stunningly profound, I devoured every insightful word of this story. I highly recommend treating yourself to this lovely book.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Abbie Emmons for the opportunity to experience 100 Days of Sunlight.
