A tale of faith, friendship, and community, A Light on the Horizon will delight readers of all ages. Author Lagang Princewill has written a captivating coming-of-age story about a young teenager navigating a new school, bullies, and friends. It's a character-driven narrative. Karen is a compelling protagonist young adult readers can relate to. She draws courage from her faith and support from her friends to stand up against her bullies. Yet, she never allows hate to corrupt her, and even against her tormentors, she chooses empathy and understanding to show them the error of their ways. I loved her friendship with Katie and their unity to stand against bullying.
