The character of Mary Pearl is such an amazing woman, strong in her own convictions. I expected this book to be quite slow throughout but it was such an electrifying book! Filled with twists and turns, I did not know where the story would go next. Upon her arrival at college, Mary Pearl is thrust into a world she does not quite understand and is forced to adapt. But when Mary Pearl is given the opportunity to attend art school at Wheaton College in Illinois, she puts the wedding planning on hold to pursue an education. When Mary is introduced to a rich lawyer, Aubrey Hanna, she is swept into a swift engagement promising her a life of wealth and sophistication, so very different from her own humble upbringing. Although banned by their mother, Mary Pearl and her sister sneak Jane Austen novels from their aunt and read them in secret. Light Changes Everythingis a coming of age story for seventeen-year-old Mary Pearl from the Arizona Territory in the early 20 th century. It seemed like a pleasant enough story so I was happy to read it. Turner! When I read that there were some references to Jane Austen and Pride & Prejudice in this book, I was intrigued! But other than that, I really did not know what to expect from this novel.
