From the first chapter of Light Fixtures, we walk into Aurora’s lush northwest Louisiana world and have a window into her mind where she is confused by the changes as a teenager, but also as she goes through her first bipolar disorder episodes. In 1963, knowledge was limited about the illness and Aurora isn’t sure what is happening herself. The mystical journey she experiences in Light Fixtures helps her find the strength she will need for what happens next as she grows and experiences life. Light Fixtures is one of the rare YA novels focusing on teen bipolar.

The first time I read Light Fixtures I thoroughly enjoyed the picture of the South and the customs that are a part of this part of the country, as well as Aurora's adventures. The second time I read the book I realized how important a book this is because I had the opportunity to gain insight into the mind of a child as she matures and realizes she is different from others as she has her first bipolar experiences; a must read for any teenager/young adult as they experience life.

Thank you Deborah Smith, for the memorial and spiritual journey in which Light Fixtures guided me. I have fallen in love with my grandparents, again, through your writing. The story is colorful and moving, one will fall in love with the characters. Layers of teaching, that touches the physical, emotional, spiritual part of life interwoven as the scraps used for the quilts Aurora's grandmother created. An excellent read for any touched with bipolar disorder. It will make one laugh and cry. Very uplifting.

Deborah DeMoss Smith paints a vivid portrait of the life of a fourteen-year-old girl named Aurora, detailing the angst of her transition into adulthood. Beyond a relatable story, Light Fixtures commands the reader's attention with the unexpected self discovery of Aurora's bipolar disorder and what she learns about herself.
