This review is going to be short and sweet, kinda like this book. Radiance, was a super quick read. I was able to fly through it in no time at all. The plot started out slow and took a little over half the book to get to the good stuff, but since the book was so short that really didn't matter much. Radiance had a sweet storyline about young Riley and her life after she moves on to the Here and Now, and how's she's trying to accept that and deal with her early death.

I liked Riley's character most of the time, although she was pretty whiny. I really liked the idea of the Here and Now. Where are we? "here", what time is it? "now". You can be anywhere you want, dressed anyway you want, with just a thought. The ending of the book was a sweet conclusion. Overall this book was just so-so for me. It may have just been a little too much for the younger age group than I prefer, but it was still enjoyable.
