First Light by Rebecca Stead
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Boy goes to Greenland and lives on the ice.
Girl lives in Greenland and lives in the ice.
Boy meets girl. Dramatic ending ensues.
Not my favorite YA read but it was different. I did like Gracehope and the world below the ice but I wanted more info. How was light produced? How did people learn to speak dog? Why were these special talents in the population? Why didn't the ice shift or crack or melt? A less antagonistic protaganist and a little more depth would have made this book excellent.
