Where the Blue Sky Begins by Katie PownerMy rating: 💛💛💛💛
Where the Blue Skies Begins is a story of approaching heartache, but also about forgiveness, growth and making amends when given the chance.
Eunice with her stubborn no nonsense attitude and physical and emotional challenges through what life threw at her made for an emotional reading journey. I enjoyed how her, and Eric’s paths crossed and how they made an impact on each other, Eunice more on Eric.
Eunice’s lesson to Eric, that you can only worry about settling things on your side (what you can control) was thought-provoking.
Eric was a difficult character to love at the start, but at the end there were a few scenes which will soften readers’ hearts towards him.
The twist at the end wasn’t totally expected, but looking back I probably should have expected something in that line.
If you enjoy Women’s fiction, you should add this book, and this author’s other books to your TBR.
