Sky Reynolds has always spoken in silence, capturing the world through lenses and shadows instead of words. After transferring to a new school, they find themselves drawn into film club - and to Rowan, a patient, gentle artist who sees them without asking for explanations. Through light, reflections, and careful framing, Sky begins to tell the story they've kept locked inside: of fear, longing, and the quiet brilliance of existing fully.
But when one of their photographs is shared publicly, Sky must navigate the fragile line between visibility and vulnerability. With Rowan by their side, they learn that being seen isn't a threat - it's a gift. The Language of Light is a tender, slow-burn YA romance about identity, trust, creativity, and the courage to shine even when it feels impossible.
