The Sky Beneath Us (by Fiona Valpy)

I have enjoyed so many books by the author, Fiona Valpy. However, this one left me wanting more. Part of the problem was that I listened to the audiobook version and the narrative was right irritating. Another big issue was that COVID was a major aspect to the plot. I just don’t want to waste my time reading about a time period that I would prefer to forget ever happened. Maybe it’s too soon since the beginning of the pandemic or the fact that we are still being affected by COVID, but this was a major turn off in struggling through the pages. Just because this did not appeal to me, does not mean that you won’t appreciate the book. I would definitely recommend reading the book rather than listening to the audiobook version … and only if reading about COVID is not such a negative factor for you.
