A 2015 William C. Morris YA Debut Award FinalistMagical realism, lyrical prose, and the pain and passion of human love haunt this hypnotic generational saga. Foolish love appears to be the Roux family birthright, an ominous forecast for its most recent progeny, Ava Lavender. Ava -- in all other ways a normal girl -- is born with the wings of a bird. In a quest to understand her peculiar disposition and a growing desire to fit in with her peers, sixteen-year old Ava ventures into the wider world, ill-prepared for what she might discover and naive to the twisted motives of others. Others like the pious Nathaniel Sorrows, who mistakes Ava for an angel and whose obsession with her grows until the night of the summer solstice celebration. That night, the skies open up, rain and feathers fill the air, and Ava's quest and her family's saga build to a devastating crescendo. First-time author Leslye Walton has constructed a layered and unforgettable mythology of what it means to be born with hearts that are tragically, exquisitely human.

excellent
Color: 1PC Amber White 6 Modes Lights + Wiring, Size: 12Inch Light Bar
The light is impressive with six modes. The wiring harness was already prewired relay and a protective cover over the wiring. One problem was the sizeable in-line connector for the switch made it difficult to place it inside the vehicle due to the length of the wire.
Negative--The mode switch will not work unless the power is on and no indication of which mode it is currently in.

Simple, easy, quick!
Color: 1PC Amber White 6 Modes Lights + Wiring, Size: 12Inch Light Bar
I installed this light at on my 25hp New Holland Tractor for some light assistance with plowing snow. Very easy to install and provided a ton of light that was needed. Wish I had a photo to share.
