Cover Crush: Picture Us In The Light by Kelly Loy Gilbert
Picture Us In The Light by Kelly Loy Gilbert when this cover showed up in my twitter feed last week, debuting on Happily Ever After, I almost flailed it was so awesome! Plus it like totally goes with my blogs color scheme, so double love! Do yourself a favor and click this link to see the absolutely breathtaking full wrap of this cover! I absolutely love the concept and the color scheme. It’s really eye catching and we all know what eye catching books can do…sell! I sure hope this story is just as impactful as that cover, and I have a feeling this book is going to tug right at my heartstrings and I can already foresee tears in that future. I really hope I can get my hands on an early copy! I know that April 10th feels like a long way away…but you can always add it to your 2018 TBR as to not forget about it!

Danny Cheng has always known his parents have secrets. But when he discovers a taped-up box in his father’s closet filled with old letters and a file on a powerful Silicon Valley family, he realizes there’s much more to his family’s past than he ever imagined.
Danny has been an artist for as long as he can remember and it seems his path is set, with a scholarship to RISD and his family’s blessing to pursue the career he’s always dreamed of. Still, contemplating a future without his best friend, Harry Wong, by his side makes Danny feel a panic he can barely put into words. Harry and Danny’s lives are deeply intertwined and as they approach the one-year anniversary of a tragedy that shook their friend group to its core, Danny can’t stop asking himself if Harry is truly in love with his girlfriend, Regina Chan.
When Danny digs deeper into his parents’ past, he uncovers a secret that disturbs the foundations of his family history and the carefully constructed fa ade his parents have maintained begins to crumble. With everything he loves in danger of being stripped away, Danny must face the ghosts of the past in order to build a future that belongs to him.
