Synopsis
“What We Called Ours” is a coming-of-age story about four teenagers in the 1990’s. A seasoned Bright Malone guides us through her life, somehow never letting the obvious wisdom of age overshadow the honesty of her youth. Through her, we meet her chosen family, understanding early the magnitude of their bond, not only with each other, but with the spirits as well. They survive the nuns of Catholic school and the woes of childhood with a humor that will warm your soul.
Bright walks us rather slowly through fifteen, the year they find the little boy that will capture all of their hearts, and change all of their lives forever. Bright reminds us of the magic that is fifteen, and as angels and demons swarm all around them, we remember just what it means to be human. We see the world through her eyes, and no matter what color they may be as we do, after reading “What We Called Ours,” nothing will ever seem quite so black and white again.
I hope you fall in love with the characters as much as I did. I feel this story wrote itself, as if Bright took over and told her tale in a way I never could. I hope that this letting go will capture your heart. I am grateful these characters came to me, and even more grateful for where they took me. Though, what I am most grateful for is anyone who takes time out of their life to read this book. It is truly an honor.
