‘If Sylvia Plath wrote a novel for young adults, The Taste of Blue Light would be it’ Louise O’Neill, author of Asking For It

What happened to me?
Why can’t I remember?

Weeks after blacking out and waking up in hospital, Lux still has no memory of what happened.
She doesn’t know why her days are consumed by pain and her nights by terrifying dreams; why her parents won’t stop shouting and her friends stop talking when she walks into the room.

All she knows is that the Lux she once was is gone – and that if she can’t uncover the truth, everything she loves will be taken away too.

‘Devastating and brilliant’ Stylist

‘Truly unforgettable’ Heat

Reading Groups @ Leigh

Leigh Library Crime Reading Group meets on the third Thursday Evening of every month.

One of our set books was, The Taste of Blue Light Lydia Ruffles by. The Book promoted a lively debate and strong feelings, among the group. Here below are the group’s revues about this title.
“Theme was promising, but it lacked pace. I Lost engagement with the character until last quarter of the book, however, I would recommend this to a younger, say teen reader, not somebody over 60.”
C.Pearson

“Was this book written from personal experience or based on someone else’s? There is a feeling of flatness (Lux’s mental state??) “
Margaret Williams.
