    A Spark of Light by Jodi Picoult has garnered praise for its timely and bold exploration of reproductive rights, featuring complex characters and multiple perspectives. However, some readers have found the reverse chronological storytelling a bit confusing. While many appreciate the emotional depth and intricate narrative, others feel it can be overly didactic at times.
