Bright Lights — E.M. Denning

The world is too full of scared kids and scared adults. Too full of scared people who feel they can only be themselves in the dark with the blinds drawn and the door locked. The world is too full of people who are afraid to be themselves in the daylight, so instead they live in the dark.

The world is full of people like Sam.

A boy who lived in the dark. A boy who changed his town.
