I bought this book for myself since my sons are too young for it. I really loved it! It is one of those feel-good books where the main character overcomes a disability and makes a success of their life. There is also a sweet love story which I really enjoyed. I would definitely recommend this book.

This coming of age story tackles hardship, consequences of war, perseverance, and friendship through thick and thin. Keith Burton is terrified to discover he’s going blind. Through Keith’s pursuit of figuring out his life post-blindness, we see many examples of encouraging others through adversity and positivity.

Wow! I loved this story. It has such a great message of overcoming adversity and hardship. I love the character of Susan who loves Keith so much and works so hard to help him!

A moving story about disability and the joy that we can find even in the darkest of times.

I found and read this book on Kindle. It really held my interest, and I loved the characters and felt like I knew them. It was a fascinating look into men going blind during WW1. I didn’t read high-quality books as a kid, and am trying to read upper-level worthy books now as an adult. This book had elevated vocabulary, which was nice to challenge my brain a little. It had great moral lessons and is a good book for high schoolers to read, or even advanced young teen readers. I hope to read more books by this author.
