The Light Between Oceans by M.L. StedmanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Wonderful storyline. A baby washes up with a dead man in a boat on the shore after Isabel's third miscarriage. What are the chances the real mother is still alive. And what do you do when you find out after 3 years that she is? If the symbolism of light and dark, ocean currents and lighthouses are a bit heavy handed at times, you forgive it because the characters are nuanced and the themes of love and forgiveness are so beautifully expressed. BTW, the movie does do the novel justice for once, using the best plot lines and quotes from the book.
