Will is
blind and has decided that in order to start becoming more independent he is
going to leave his school for the blind and mainstream at a public high
school. Will finds a friend in Cecily
who he starts to develop feelings for.
Then Will is given the opportunity to get his eyesight back and he
undergoes surgery. Will have to relearn
many simple tasks in his effort to see and it changes his relationship with
Cecily.
I enjoyed this book and was
super interested in the story until the last quarter of the book and then it
gets bogged down with too much detail about Will trying to rediscover his
world. I also felt like Will’s character regressed as the book went on, he became selfish and things that shouldn’t
matter did especially in relation to Cecily.
The mature content is a couple of sexual references.
