Abby and Brooke were wonderful characters. I think Abby really developed and grew as she learned more about herself, more about the disease and let herself let go. I liked her relationship with Ben and how he helped her work through things.
This is a beautiful story that looks at life and how what we do with our time matters because it may never be as much as we thought.

Thanks NetGalley and the Publisher for this ARC!

This was a real eye opener for me. The authors did an amazing job unfolding the story and the characters to really draw you in. It is not an easy story. Difficult choices are made with life long consequences. The authors obviously did a lot of research. The story was believable while not being a medical journal.
So many people deal with medical issues and have to make agonizing decisions. This is one such story.

Fade into the Bright is a gut punch of a book. After finding out that her father has Huntington's disease, Abby and her sister, Brooke, both undergo extensive genetic counseling and decide to have a test to see if they, too, have the gene for Huntington's disease. One of them tests positive, and the book starts with Abby's flee to Catalina to try to decompress and deal with the news. Abby must balance this news with the new friends, and guy, she meets on the island.

As opposed to other sick lit, Fade into the Bright is unique in that the disease at hand in way in the future, as opposed to claiming someone's life right now. Thus, the central questions are more about "How would you live your life if you knew how you were going to die?" It's innovative, heartbreaking, and hopeful.
