Let’s get this out of the way: All The Light is a long book. 531 pages long. This is the second longest book I’ve read this year (the winner of that award is still Afterwords) and man, it felt it. That’s not to say it isn’t a good book; it’s beautiful and visual and broken up into mostly short chapters of just a few pages, but it. is. long. Towards the end, this turned into a book that I was reading just to get through it, not because I felt invested or really wanted to see how the story ended. So I can get into that a little more, I’m going to tell you now: here be spoilers. Not huge ones, but still, if you’re dying to read this book on your own, please skip this review and go read another fantastic CBR one instead. If you’re ready, let’s go.

I agree very much with your last paragraph (as is probably obvious from my review of this book)! I wanted to like it, but it just left me cold.
It was so frustrating! I kept trying to tell myself “You should like this, you should like this!” and then it just didn’t happen. Very disappointing.
