Under the Southern Sky
by Kristy Woodson Harvey
Thank you @netgalley for the eARC! Under the Southern Sky comes out on 4/20!
I ended up reading Under the Southern Sky during my spring break, and it was the perfect story to immerse myself in. Amelia Buxton is recently separated from her husband. During her work as a journalist, she uncovers a story that becomes deeply personal. Amelia discovers “abandoned” embryos belonging to her childhood friend Parker and his late wife Greer, whom Parker is still grieving the loss of. Parker’s decision of what to do with the embryos leads to him and Amelia finding comfort in each other as they are on a journey of self-discovery.
Kristy Woodson Harvey beautifully packed so much into this story — family, friendship, parenthood, love and loss — to name a few. I loved reading Greer’s journal entries. It allowed me to feel connected to her as I was reading. I also really loved both Amelia and Parker. Their characters were developed really well, in a way that allowed you to feel their struggles and want the best for them.
The setting of Cape Carolina was perfect. There’s just something about a story that takes place in the south. I will definitely be reading more by Kristy Woodson Harvey when I’m itching for another southern tale!
