Thank you to NetGalley and Grand Central Publishing for the advanced copy for review. The Light Pirate is set in a time when the United States and the world are experiencing the crumbling of everything. It's set in Florida that continues to get hit with hurricanes more and more every year. It's starting to be taken over by the sea and the citizens either have to flee north to higher ground or adapt. Very few can adapt. The story focuses on a family who weathers the storms as well as they are able. They lose people and find new ones along the way that become family. Their main goal is to survive. It's beautifully written and I could feel the descriptions the author wrote. The detail and storytelling is just remarkable. I truly hope that she writes more books. I've already preordered this one and purchased an older book of hers. I'm in love with the writing and storytelling.
