- Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2019I was fortunate enough to meet the author at an event before I even knew she was an author. When I found out about this book, I bought it the same day. She's a talented author that's able to take you through the streets of Scotland, Italy, Africa and many other places I've never been, but hope to visit now that I've read this book. I have a rule that if a book doesn't grab my attention in the first 20 pages, I don't read it. This had me hooked from the very beginning. I'm also not usually a fiction reader, but again, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone else that enjoys non-fiction.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2021An excellent story of a young woman whose life is changed in an accident, and her journey to recover and live life to the fullest.
5 Stars for this book.
I recommend this book to everyone
- Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2017I thoroughly enjoyed Blue Sky Morning! The descriptions of the places Emily visited made me want to set out on adventures. The story follows a woman who has experienced tremendous loss and how she found herself again, healed her heart's wounds, and was able to discover what she truly loved.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2018A true journey story. As Emily travels the world, her self-assurance expands along with her horizons. Maier's intermittent use of flashbacks gives us just enough insight into Emily's past without jarring the reader away from the path Emily follows. A perceptive work from this first-time author.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2017What if you had a traumatic event occur unexpectedly in your life? What if, after you emerged from that trauma, you decided to pack up and leave your hometown for a six month trip around the world? That's what Emily does in this novel about recovering from an accident that left her with both physical and emotional scarring. She decides to be brave and dares to try living a different way. This is a wonderful novel about growth, transformation, and the quest to become who she really is.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2019Great book. No wonder it's up for an award.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2018Great story that takes you on a journey! It's a must read!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2018I love this story! Blue Sky Morning hit home for me, because I have had a rock bottom moment in my life. I know this feeling of searching for the true me and searching for more. I believe many people will love this story too, because so many people would love to travel in order to discover what is missing in life. Great read!
