Kaylen gave 5 stars to All the Colors of the Dark (Hardcover) by Chris Whitaker
I have only one excuse as to why it took me two months to finish this exceptional book�� work. Some Mays in teaching are harder than others and this one was a doozy!

All The Colors of the Dark is a thrilling, compelling, and emotional story that comes back, again and again, to love. Its love stories are varied; they are traditional and nontraditional, they are of family, of friends, and of loves, they are all intensely intertwined and each devastatingly poignant.

It’s hard to dig into a lengthy review without giving away vital pieces of this incredible story, so in an effort to be concise and avoid spoilers, I’ll say this�� I may have taken an unnaturally long time to finish this book, but the times when I was unable to read it, I was thinking about it and wishing that I was reading it. The impressions it left were swift, intense, and lasting.

I can’t write a review to do it justice, so I’ll stop there. Read this book!
